## Narrative

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

PILOT STATED HE WAS ON A ROUTINE FLIGHT AND LANDING AT HIS HOME AIRPARK ,SC7. DURING LANDING THE AIRCRAFT TOUCHED DOWN ON THE RUNWAY AS NORMAL AND THEN THE PROPELLER CONTACTED THE RUNWAY CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE PROPELLER. THE PILOT WAS NOT HURT. AFTER THE PILOT INSPECTED THE AIRCRAFT HE NOTICED THAT THE NOSE LANDING GEAR WAS STILL IN THE NOSE WHEEL WELL WITH THE DOORS CLOSED.

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.
