## Narrative

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

(-23)INVESTIGATION SHOWED THAT THIS STUDENT PILOT NEEDED MORE TRAINING FOR CROSSWINDS LANDINGS. THE INSTRUCTOR HAS GIVEN ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTION AND FEELS CROSSWIND LANDINGS HAVE BEEN TAUGHT SO THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. THIS OFFICE FEELS COUNSELING AND ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTION IS SUFFICIENT IN ORDER TO ESTABLISH A GOOD MARGIN OF SAFETY FOR THIS NOT TO HAPPEN AGAIN AND THAT THIS INCIDENT IS CLOSED WITH NO FURTHER ACTION.

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.
