## Narrative

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

THE AIRCRAFT INVOLVED DEPARTED BUFFALO AIRPORT (CFE) ON 10-16-2012 ENROUTE TO FLYING CLOUD AIRPORT (FCM). WEATHER AT FCM WAS CLEAR WITH WINDS 180 AT 6 KNOTS. DURING ROLLOUT ON RUNWAY 10R THE PILOT LOST DIRECTIONAL CONTROL OF THE AIRCRAFT. TO AVOID HITTING THE RUNWAY LIGHTS HE APPLIED BRAKES WHICH CAUSED THE TAIL TO LIFT WHICH RESULTED IN THE PROPELLER STRIKING THE RUNWAY.
