## Narrative

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

(-23) PIC STATED THAT, FOLLOWING HIS FIRST TOUCH-AND-GO, HE OBSERVED A DEER ON THE AIRPORT WHILE ON HIS DOWNWIND LEG. HE CONTINUED HIS APPROACH TO THE RUNWAY WHILE WATCHING THE DEER. HE NEGLECTED TO EXTEND THE LANDING GEAR, AND THE GLARE FROM THE SUNLIGHT AFFECTED HIS ABILITY TO OBSERVE THE GEAR-DOWN LITES. HE WAS WEARING A HEADSET, AND DIDN'T RECALL HEARING A GEAR WARNING HORN FROM THE OVERHEAD SPEAKER. THE GEAR-UP LANDING RESULTED IN DAMAGE TO BOTH PROPELLERS AND BELLY SKIN SCRAPES. THE AIRCRAFT REMAINED ON THE RUNWAY, AND ALL OCCUPANTS WERE ABLE TO EGRESS WITHOUT DIFFICULTY. A POST-INCIDENT INSPECTION REVEALED NO MECHANICAL ABNORMALITIES. THIS INCIDENT INVESTIGATION, ^PRIVACY DATA OMIT^ IS CLOSED WITH THIS REPORT.

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.
