## Narrative

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

(-23) UPON LANDING AT SQL, WINDS WERE FROM 230 @ 16 KNOTS, GUSTING @ 22 KNOTS. DURING TOUCH DOWN ON RW 30 THE LEFT WING CAUGHT A GUST OF WIND AND THE AIRCRAFT HIT HARD ON RIGHT MAIN, THE NOSE PITCHED DOWN HARD AND PROCEEDED TO GO THROUGH ONE MORE PITCH DOWN OSCILLATION. THE PILOT THEN INITIATED A GO-AROUND, AND AFTER A SUCCESSFUL LANDING AND ROLLOUT THE ENGINE WAS SHUT DOWN. THE PILOT THEN OBSERVED THE PROPELLER TIPS WERE BENT INDICATING THE PROPELLER STRUCK THE GROUND. NO INJURY OCCURRED AND THERE WAS NO APPARENT DAMAGE TO THE AIRFRAME.

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.
