## Narrative

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

(-23) N9819Y DEPARTED IFR FROM KPVU TO KVGT. APPROXIMATELY 15 MILES FROM KVGT, THE PIC OF N9819Y CANCELLED IFR AND PROCEEDED VISUALLY TO RWY 25 OF KVGT. PIC STATED THAT HE CONFIGURED THE AIRPLANE FOR LANDING BUT GOT DISORIENTED AND LOST SIGHT OF THE AIRPORT. ADDITIONALLY, THE PIC STATED THAT ATC PROVIDED A LOW ALTITUDE ALERT. IN RESPONSE, THE PIC DECIDED TO RAISE THE LANDING GEAR AND CLIMB APPROXIMATELY 200'. AFTER REGAINING SIGHT OF THE AIRPORT, THE PIC CONTINUED HIS APPROACH TO LAND ON RUNWAY 25. PIC STATED THAT HE FAILED TO LOWER THE LANDING GEAR. N9819Y LANDED WITH THE LANDING GEAR IN THE RETRACTED POSITION, RESULTING IN MINOR DAMAGE. REPAIR TO THE PROPELLER, ENGINE, AND FUSELAGE IS REQUIRED. NO INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED FROM THE SOLE PASSENGER OR THE PILOT.

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.
