## Narrative

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

(-23) AIRCRAFT HAD JUST EXPERIENCED GEAR SYSTEM MAINTENANCE THE WEEK BEFORE AT CAMARILLO, CA. ON THE FIRST FLIGHT, PILOT RECEIVED NO GEAR DOWN GREEN LIGHT ON EXTENSION AT SNA, CA. HE TRIED TO PUMP THE GEAR DOWN WITH THE EMERGENCY HANDLE TO NO AVAIL. MAIN GEAR LOCKED INTO PLACE UPON TOUCHDOWN, BUT THE NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED CAUSING DAMAGE TO NOSEGEAR, GEAR DOORS AND PROP. NO INJURIES.

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.
