## Narrative

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

INCIDENT OCCURED ON 18:45, 10/16/2010, AT CEDAR MILLS AIRPORT (3T0) GORDONVILLE TX, IN VMC WEATHER CONDITIONS. THE PILOT WAS TAXIING CESSNA 206G MODEL (N7806S) FROM GRASS RUNWAY TO GRASS TAXI WAY.  AIRCRAFT'S FLOATS (THE NOSE OF FLOATS) STRUCK THE GROUND WHEN THE AIRCRAFT MOVED OVER RUT IN GROUND. RUT COULD NOT BE SEEN, GROUND APPEARED TO BE LEVEL.  DAMAGE TO THE LANDING WHEEL'S SPRING(S) OCCURED AFTER FLOAT'S NOSE(S) STRUCK THE GROUND. 1 PILOT AND 2 PASSENGERS ON BOARD, NO INJURIES NOTED. FAA FAAST TEAM MEMBERS WERE ONSITE DURING THIS INCIDENT AND CAPTURED DATA FOR THIS INVESTIGATION.  I ALSO SPOKE WITH THE PILOT TO CONFIRM THE FAAST TEAM'S FINDINGS.  NOTE: FAA IIC DID NOT GO TO SCENE SINCE FAA'S FAAST TEAM MEMBERS WERE ON SITE.

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.
