## Narrative

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

(-23) ON NOV 15, 2000 I INTERVIEWED THE PIC AND HE STATED THAT HE WAS CLEARED TO LAND ON RUNWAY 23, AS HE TOUCHED DOWN A CROSS WIND HIT HIM SO HE DID A GO AROUND AND WAS CLEARED TO LAND ON RUNWAY 31 BECAUSE OF THE CHANGING WINDS. THE PIC THEN STATED THAT HE RETRACTED THE GEAR AND LINED UP WITH RUNWAY 31 AND "JUST FORGOT" TO LOWER THE GEAR. THE CONTROLLER WAS ALSO INTERVIEWED AND CONCURRED WITH WHAT THE PILOT STATED.

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.
