## Narrative

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

(-23) AIRCRAFT WAS APPROACHING RUNWAY 32 AT EAU FOR LANDING. PILOT STATED THAT HE WAS DISTRACTED DUE TO THE FACT THAT HE WAS HIGH ON THE GLIDE PATH. THE PILOT PERFORMED A FORWARD SLIP TO LOSE ALTITUDE AND FAILED TO EXTEND THE LANDING GEAR PRIOR TO LANDING.

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.
