## Narrative

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

(-23) PILOT DEPARTED CENTON, GA ON A PLEASURE FLIGHT.  DECIDED TO LAND AT ANDREWS-MURPHY, NC TO STRETCH AND TAKE A BREAK.  BY THE TIME HE REALIZED HE HADN'T PUT THE LANDING GEAR DOWN, HE WAS TOO CLOSE TO THE GROUND AND HIS AIRSPEED WAS TOO LOW FOR A GO-AROUND.  PILOT LANDED GEAR UP.

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.
