## Narrative

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

N711BJ IS A POWERED GLIDER THAT PERFORMED A GEAR-UP LANDING IN MARFA, TEXAS ON APRIL 16, 2010.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS NOT UNDER POWER DURING THE LANDING.  THERE WAS MINOR DAMAGE TO THE COMPOSITE OUTER FUSELAGE AND LANDING GEAR DOORS.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS RAISED AT THE INCIDENT SITE AND THE LANDING GEAR WAS FULLY OPERATIONAL AND WAS EXTENDED WITHOUT EVENT.

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.
