## Narrative

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

ON APRIL 17, 2012 AT APPROXIMATELY 1430 HRS, N69207 WAS BEING OPERATED ON A DUAL INSTRUCTION PRIVATE PILOT TRAINING FLIGHT AT THE KENDALL-TAMIAMI AIRPORT IN MIAMI FLORIDA. DURING A PRACTICE APPROACH AND LANDING ON RUNWAY 9L THE LEFT WING OF THE AIRCRAFT CAME IN CONTACT WITH THE RUNWAY SURFACE AND WAS DAMAGED. FLIGHT INSTRUCTOR REPORTS THAT THE STUDENT MADE AN INCORRECT CROSSWIND CORRECTION AND THAT HE WAS UNABLE TO RECOVER FROM THE RESULTANT AIRCRAFT ATTITUDE . THE LANDING  WAS CONTINUED. THE AIRCRAFT WAS TAXIED OFF THE RUNWAY WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT. POST FLIGHT INSPECTION BY MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL REVEALED DAMAGE TO THE LEFT WING TIP AND LEFT WING LEADING EDGE.

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.
