(-23)ON MARCH 22, 2001, N97187 WAS EXECUTING TOUCH AND GO LANDINGS AT TUCSON INTL AIRPORT. THE PILOT STATED THAT HE WAS DEMONSTRATING THE AIRCRAFT TO A PROSPECTIVE BUYER WHEN THEY EXPERIENCED A WIND SHEAR ON TAKE OFF. THE AIRCRAFT SETTLED BACK ON THE RUNWAY CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE LEFT MAIN GEAR.  A SIGMET WAS ISSUED WITH A WIND SHEAR ADVISORY FOR THE AIRPORT AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT.  THE PILOT WAS COUNSELED BY THIS OFFICE ABOUT THE HAZARDS OF FLIGHT DURING SIGMET ADVISORIES.

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.
