## Narrative

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

(-23) ON MONDAY, APRIL 4, 2005 AT 1310 LOCAL TIME, THE PILOT ^PRIVACY DATA OMIT^ WAS FLYING A CESSNA 182, N625LS, AT THE GENESEE COUNTY AIRPORT (GVQ) IN BATAVIA, NY. AT THE TIME OF THE FLIGHT, THE WINDS WERE 300 AT 17, GUSTING TO 28. DURING A PRACTICE ILS APPROACH ON RUNWAY 28, THE PILOT APPLIED 10 DEGREES OF FLAPS 1/2 MILE OUT AND NEARING THE RUNWAY, EXTENDED THE FLAPS TO 20 DEGREES. AS THE AIRCRAFT TOUCHED THE RUNWAY, IT PORPOISED UP AND DOWN ON THE RUNWAY TWO TIMES. IN AN ATTEMPT TO KEEP THE AIRCRAFT FROM PORPOISING, THE PILOT ADDED POWER IN AN ATTEMPT TO GO AROUND, BUT WAS UNAWARE THAT THE PROPELLERS HAD ALREADY HIT THE RUNWAY. THERE WAS INSUFFICIENT POWER TO THE ENGINE AND WHEN THE PILOT REALIZED THIS, HE PULLED THE THROTTLE BACK AS THE AIRCRAFT VEERED OFF THE RUNWAY AND INTO THE MUD. AS SOON AS THE AIRCRAFT CAME TO A STOP, THE PILOT SHUT DOWN THE ENGINE AND ALL ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THIS INCIDENT IS CONSIDERED 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.
