## Narrative

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

PILOT LOST CONTROL OF AIRCRAFT DURING LANDING AT WENDOVER, UTAH. PROPS STRUCK RUNWAY AND AIRCRAFT EVENTUALLY CAME TO REST ON ITS NOSE. MECHANIC REPORTS MINIMAL DAMAGE TO PROPS AND SPINNER. NO INJURY TO PILOT. ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^

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.
