## Narrative

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

ARRIVED ON SCENE AND FOUND AIRCRAFT N6832P SETTING ON A DOLLY WITH MAIN GEAR PARTILLAY EXTENDED DOWN ABOUT 6 INCHES. BOTH PROP TIPS WERE BENT BACKWARDWS (TOWARD FUSELAGE) WITH SMALL AMOUNTS OF METAL MISSING FROM EACH TIP. NO OTHER DAMAGE WAS NOTED.

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.
