## Narrative

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

(-23) THE OWNER AND PILOT ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^ STATED THAT HIS FLIGHT WAS FOR THE PURPOSE OF CURRENCY THIS DAY. ON NORMAL APPROACH TO RUNWAY 22 AT THE GAINESVILLE AIRPORT, THE AIRCRAFT DISPLAYED NORMAL GEAR DOWN INDICATION(S) AND TOUCHDOWN ON RUNWAY 22 WAS NORMAL. HOWEVER, ON ROLL-OUT, I FELT THE AIRCRAFT "SAG" DOWN AND THEN THE PROPELLER STRUCK THE RUNWAY SURFACE AND THE AIRCRAFT SKIDDED ON THE UNDERSIDE OF THE FUSELAGE. THE AIRCRAFT CAME TO REST NEAR THE CENTERLINE OF RUNWAY 22 AND THE PILOT ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^ DID AN EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN AND EGRESSED THE AIRCRAFT. (OWNER/OPERATOR STATEMENT ATTACHED)

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.
