## Narrative

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

(-23) MR. PAT MONAGHEN WAS PRACTICING TOUCH AND GO LANDINGS AT SAN CARLOS AIRPORT WHEN THE WIND SHIFTED DRAMATICALLY CAUSING THE A/C TO TURN. MR. MONAGHAN DECIDED TO GO AROUND DUE TO THE UNCONTROLLABILITY OF THE A/C ON THE GROUND BECAUSE OF UNSTABLE WINDS. HE DECIDED TO MAKE AN EMERGENCY LANDING ON AN ADJACENT GOLF COURSE RATHER THAN RISK A COLLISION WITH THE TREES AT THE END OF THE RWY.

## NTSB investigation

None matched to this report by aircraft and date. Search the NTSB's own records: https://data.ntsb.gov/carol-main-public/basic-search

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.
