## Narrative

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

DURING LANDING OPERATIONS, AT APPROXIMATELY 08:00 ON THE MORNING OF 02-03-2013, AT ROBERT R. WELLS JR. AIRPORT (66R), THE PILOT LOST CONTROL OF THE WEIGHT SHIFT LIGHT SPORT AIRCRAFT. THE AIRCRAFT SUSTAINED DAMAGE TO THE LOWER FAIRING (UNDER THE PILOT SEAT), THE FRONT FABRIC PORTION OF THE WING AND THE TRAILING FABRIC PORTION OF THE WING NEXT TO THE PROPELLER. THERE WERE NO INJURIES.

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.
