## Narrative

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

(-23) AIRCRAFT LANDED GEAR UP. DURING CRASH RECOVERY THE LANDING GEAR WAS EXTENDED NORMALLY WITH NO ABNORMALITIES NOTED. ALL LANDING GEAR WARNING SYSTEMS OPERATED NORMALLY. NO FURTHER MALFUNCTION OR DEFECTS WERE NOTED.

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.
