What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) privacy data omitted aircraft operated in the air doing practice maneuvers and touch and go landings then went down for the final landing when the pilot thinks he ran into a change of wind direction at about 10 feet from touch down. The aircraft landed hard and the gear collapsed on both sides and the propeller made contact with the ground.
