## Narrative

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

(-23) THE PILOT ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^ STATED THAT HE WAS UNABLE TO GET THE CURRENT WEATHER ON AWOS AT FNL AND WHEN HE FINALLY WAS ABLE TO SEE THE WIND SOCK HE ENTERED A RIGHT DOWNWIND FOR RUNWAY 15. HE SAID HE WAS VERY BUSY LOOKING FOR TRAFFIC AND SIMPLY FORGOT TO LOWER THE LANDING GEAR. THE AIRCRAFT SUFFERED SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE.

## The NTSB's investigation of this event (1)

From the NTSB's public API. Aircraft are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported serial number, make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model.
