## Narrative

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

(-23) WHEN GEAR SELECTED DOWN, GEAR HORN SOUNDED AND GEAR LITE INDICATED GEAR UNSAFE. PILOT CYCLED GEAR ONCE, WITH NO CHANGE AND DID A FLYBY FOR TOWER TO OBSERVE. NOSE GEAR WAS DOWN BUT COULD NOT CONFIRM LOCKED. PERFORMED FULL STALL LANDING. NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED WITH WEIGHT OF AIRCRAFT.

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.
