## Narrative

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

(-23)THIS APPROACH AND LANDING WAS THE FIRST TIME THE PILOT HAD BEEN INTO THE INDIAN CREEK AIRSTRIP (S81).  THE PILOT STATED THAT EVEN THOUGH HE HAD OBTAINED INFORMATION ON HOW TO APPROACH THE AIRSTRIP, HE HAD A HIGH ANXIETY LEVEL.  AS HE APPROACHED DOWN THE CANYON DESCENDING AND AS HE MADE THE BLIND TURN TO FINAL, HE FAILED TO  EXTEND THE LANDING GEAR.  THE GEAR WARNING HORN DID NOT SOUND BECAUSE HE WAS CARRYING POWER THROUGHOUT THE APPROACH.  AT THE MOMENT HE HAD THE SPOT ON THE AIRSTRIP MADE, HE REMOVED THE POWER AND THE AIRCRAFT LANDED.

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.
