## Narrative

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

AIRCRAFT WAS ON RUNWAY 22/04 WITH ALL THREE LANDING GEARS IN THE UP POSITION.  EXAMINED THE AIRCRAFT CONDITION AND NOTED THAT THE LANDING GEAR SELECTOR WAS IN THE DOWN POSITION.  A RETRACT TEST ON THE LANDING GEARSYSTEM WAS PERFORMED AND IT OPERATED NORMALLY, NO DEFECTS WERE NOTED.

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.
