## Narrative

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

(-23) AFTER LANDING ON RUNWAY 33 AT THE NEBRASKA CITY MUNICIPAL AIRPORT, THE PILOT ACCIDENTALLY RETRACTED THE LANDING GEAR. THE PILOT THOUGHT HE WAS RAISING THE FLAPS AND MISTOOK THE GEAR HANDLE FOR THE FLAP HANDLE.

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.
