## Narrative

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

(-5) STUDENT PILOT WAS PRACTICING TAKEOFFS AND LANDINGS AT AN AIRPORT WITH AN OPERATING CONTROL TOWER TO ACCOMPLISH THE PRIVATE PILOT REQUIREMENTS, AFTER RECEIVING INSTRUCTION FROM HIS INSTRUCTOR WHO HAD PROPERLY ENDORSED HIS RECORDS. ON THE FOURTH LANDING MR HULSTEN WAS LANDING ON RUNWAY 31 WITH THE WIND FROM 020 DEGREES AT 5+ KNOTS WHEN HE LOST CONTROL OF THE AIRPLANE. THE LEFT WINGTIP AND THE PROPELLER CONTACTED THE RUNWAY. THE DAMAGE TO THE WING WAS MINOR, AND THE PROPELLER TIPS WERE BENT AT THE ENDS. ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^ THIS INCIDENT IS CONSIDERED CLOSED WITH THIS REPORT.

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.
