## Narrative

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

(-23) ON JULY 23, 2005 N9PT OPERATED BY A COMMERCIAL RATED PILOT WAS INBOUND TO THE OSHKOSH EAA CONVENTION USING THE FISK ARRIVAL TO RUNWAY 9. HE FELT HIS SPACING WITH THE AIRCRAFT IN FRONT OF HIM WAS ADEQUATE AND WAS TOLD TO LAND ON THE NUMBERS. ABOUT THIS TIME ANOTHER AIRCRAFT, A LOW WING, PROCEEDED TO INSERT ITSELF FROM THE RIGHT BETWEEN N9PT AND THE AIRCRAFT IN FRONT OF HIM. THE PILOT OF N9PT BELIEVED THIS AIRCRAFT WAS INSTRUCTED TO REENTER THE PATTERN AFTER PERFORMING A GO-AROUND. N9PT TOUCHED DOWN ABOUT 100' SHORT OF THE RUNWAY ON A HEADING OF ABOUT 80 DEGREES, THE LEFT WING SCRAPED THE GROUND, AND THE NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED. THE AIRCRAFT PROCEEDED ONTO AND THEN OFF THE RUNWAY'S NORTH EDGE AT WHICH TIME IT FLIPPED OVER AFTER COMING INTO CONTACT WITH THE SOFT EDGE. THE PILOT OF N9PT BELIEVES WAKE TURBULENCE FROM THE LOW WING WAS A FACTOR IN THIS INCIDENT. THE WIND WAS 180 DEGREES AT 10 KNOTS.

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.
