## Narrative

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

UPON INITIATING A LANDING AT WORTHINGTON AIRPORT, AIRCRAFT EXPERIENCED WINDGUSTS, PROPOISED, SPUN AROUND AND THE LEFT MAIN GEAR PARTIALLY COLLASPED. THE LEFT WING TIP AND PROPELLER STRUCK THE RUNWAY. NO INJURIES TO PILOT OR PASSENGER.  SOME PILOT AND AIRCRAFT DATA IS MISSING BECAUSE AIRMAN HAS BEEN NONE RESPONSIVE TO REQUEST MESSAGES LEFT. REPORT WILL BE AMENDED

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.
