## Narrative

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

(-23) ON APRIL 23, 2003, AT 1300 EST, A BEECHCRAFT 76, N777RS, REGISTERED TO BARMASOM AVIATION INC., LANDED WITH THE NOSE LANDING GEAR RETRACTED IN ALBERT WHITTED (SPG) WHILE ON A PERSONAL FLIGHT. ALL ATTEMPTS BY THE PILOT TO EXTEND THE NOSE GEAR FAILED. VISUAL METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS PREVAILED AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. THE AIRCRAFT SUSTAINED MINOR DAMAGE AND THE COMMERCIALLY RATED PILOT WAS NOT INJURED. THE FLIGHT ORIGINATED FROM EASTMAN GA (EZM).

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.
