## Narrative

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

NARRATIVE: IN PILOTS FIRST ATTEMPT AT LANDING AIRCRAFT, HIT HARD AND PILOT DID A GO AROUND. IN THE SECOND LANDING AIRCRAFT HIT HARD AND BEGAN TO PORPOISE DOWN THE RUNWAY. AFTER POST FLIGHT, PILOT NOTICED A PROP STRIKE WITH DAMAGE TO BOTH PROP TIPS. PILOT STATED, WINDS WERE OUT OF THE NORTH AT 5-10 MPH.

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.
