## Narrative

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

(-23) ON JUNE 15, 2001, THE AIRCRAFT LANDING GEAR WOULD NOT EXTEND. PILOT WAS CLEARED FOR LANDING BY CHS ATCT. PILOT MADE GEAR UP LANDING ON RUNWAY 21. THE AIRCRAFT SUSTAINED MINOR DAMAGE AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES OT THE PILOT OR PASSENGER.

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.
