## Narrative

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

(-23) THE PILOT WAS OPERATING THE AIRCRAFT ON HIS FLIGHT TO BID UNDER 14 CFR PART 91. THE WEATHER AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT WAS CLEAR WITH WINDS REPORTED AT 020/11 WITH GUSTS TO 17 KNOTS. THE PILOT STATED TO RIAC INSPECTOR ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^ THAT HE SET UP FOR A LANDING ON RUNWAY 10 AND FELT EVERYTHING WAS FINE FOR AN UNEVENTFUL LANDING. THE PILOT STATED THAT HE FLARED OVER THE NUMBERS AND FELT THE AIRCRAFT "FLOAT" DOWN THE RUNWAY. UPON TOUCHDOWN HE STATED HE KEPT BACK PRESSURE ON THE YOKE TO AID IN AERODYNAMIC BRAKING. DUE TO A WIND GUST HE STATED THE AIRCRAFT LIFTED OFF AND TOUCHED DOWN FURTHER DOWN THE RUNWAY. AT THAT POINT THE PILOT STATED HE APPLIED BRAKES AND BEGAN TO SKID. TIRE MARKS WERE VISIBLE ON THE PAVEMENT INDICATING FULL BRAKING ACTION FROM THE RIGHT MAIN MOUNT TIRE AND INTERMITTENT BRAKING ON THE LEFT SIDE. THE AIRCRAFT DEPARTED THE RUNWAY PAVEMENT, DAMAGING A RUNWAY END LIGHT. SKID MARKS WERE VISIBLE IN THE GRASS/DIRT. THE AIRCRAFT CAME TO REST UPRIGHT AGAINST THE FENCE LINE ON THE EASTERN SIDE OF THE AIRFIELD APPROXIMATELY 200 FEET FROM THE END OF THE RUNWAY. THE AIRCRAFT RECEIVED MINIMAL DAMAGE.

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.
