## Narrative

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

UPON LANDING ON RUNWAY 5 THE AIRCRAFT WAS FAR RIGHT. THE AIRCRAFT'S LEFT MAIN LANDING GEAR, LEFT WING TIP AND #1 ENGINE COWLING MOMENTARILY STRUCK THE GROUND AS THE CAPTAIN EXECUTED A GO-AROUND. THE CAPTAIN LANDED ON RUNWAY 23 WITH NO FURTHER INCIDENT.

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.
