## Narrative

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

(-23) TETERBORO WINDS WERE 330 15G25 ON THE ATIS. PILOTS WERE GIVEN A VISUAL FOR RWY 1. PILOTS HEARD ANOTHER AIRPLANE REPORT WINDSHEAR TO THE TOWER SO THEY ADJUSTED THEIR FINAL APPROACH SPEED TO REF (124K) +20. NO WIND SHEAR ADVISORY WAS GIVEN BY THE TOWER. ON FINAL, AIRPLANE SPEED WAS REF +15. ENCOUNTERING TURBULENCE, THE PIC MAINTAINED REF +15, AND FELT THE APPROACH WAS STABILIZED. OVER THE NUMBERS, A GUST OF WIND CAUGHT THE AIRPLANE, A HIGH SINK RATE WARNING CAME ON, AIRSPEED DROPPED TO REF -5. THE CREW IMMEDIATELY ADDED POWER, NOTING THAT THE AIRSPEED RAPIDLY ROSE TO REF +5. AT THIS POINT THE AIRPLANE WAS CLOSE TO THE GROUND AND THE CREW FELT A NORMAL LANDING COULD BE MADE. CREW AND PASSENGER THOUGHT IT WAS A NORMAL LANDING TILL THE LINEMAN AT THE FRO INFORMED THEM THERE WAS MINOR DAMAGE TO RIGHT WING TIP. IT HAD APPARENTLY CONTACTED THE RWY.

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.
