## Narrative

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

(-23) PILOT STATED THAT HE HAD TO GO AROUND ON HIS FIRST APPROACH DUE TO BEING A LITTLE TOO LOW AND FAST. BECAUSE OF THIS CHANGE TO HIS ROUTINE HE FORGOT TO LOWER THE LANDING GEAR ON HIS NEXT APPROACH. LANDED GEAR UP WITH DAMAGE TO PROPELLER AND BOTTOM OF AIRCRAFT.

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.
