## Narrative

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

(-23) AFTER TOUCHDOWN, THE PILOT STATED THAT A/C BECAME AIRBORNE FOR UNDETERMINED REASON. THE PILOT ATTEMPTED TO INITIATE A GO-AROUND, BUT WAS UNABLE TO CLIMB DUE TO LOW AIRSPEED. THE A/C AT THIS POINT HAD DRIFTED TO THE RIGHT OF THE RUNWAY DUE TO A DIRECT CROSS-WIND. THE PILOT DECIDED NOT TO CONTINUE GO-AROUND, BUT TO LAND STRAIGHT AHEAD. THE A/C LANDED IN THE GRASS BETWEEN RUNWAY 18L AND 18R, AND AT SOME POINT DURING THE LANDING ROLL, THE NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED.

## The NTSB's investigation of this event (1)

From the NTSB's public API. Aircraft are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported serial number, make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model.
