## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

NARRATIVE: PILOT LANDED LONG AND AIRCRAFT DROPPED OFF THE END OF THE RUNWAY. THE NOSE GEAR WAS SIGNIFICANTLY DAMAGED, IN ADDITION, A PROPELLER STRIKE OCCURRED WHICH NECESSITATED THE REMOVAL OF THE PROPELLER AND ENGINE FOR TEAR DOWN AND INSPECTION. RUNWAY CONDITIONS CONSISTED OF HARD PACKED SNOW AND ICE. PILOT SAID HE HAD NEVER BEEN INTO THIS PARTICULAR AIRPORT AND WAS NOT ANTICIPATING THE ICY AND SLICK CONDITIONS HE ENCOUNTERED AND WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE AIRPLANE IN THE LENGTH OF THE RUNWAY.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
