## Narrative

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

(-23) PILOT FAILED TO LOWER LANDING GEAR DURING LAST TOUCH AND GO. FAA VISUAL INSPECTION OF AIRCRAFT ON 3-1-05 FOUND MINOR DAMAGE TO AIRCRAFT AND WAS DETERMINED TO BE AN INCIDENT. THE PILOT WAS NOT INJURED. THE PILOT WAS COUNSELED BY THE INVESTIGATING INSPECTOR. THIS INCIDENT IS CLOSED.

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.
