## Narrative

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

ON APPROACH TO ATL RUNWAY 27L, A NOISE WAS HEARD AFTER DEPLOYING LANDING FLAPS TO 30 DEGREES ALONG WITH A SLIGHT TREMBLE OF THE AIRCRAFT.  PIC DECIDED TO CONDUCT A MISSED APPROACH PROCEDURE AND DISENGAGED AUTOPILOT.  WITH NO ABNORMAL INSTRUMENT INDICATIONS, THE CREW PERFORMED AN UNEVENTFUL LANDING.  UPON ARRIVAL TO CARGO RAMP, THE CREW AND MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL PERFORMED A VISUAL INSPECTION AND VERIFIED THERE WAS A PORTION OF THE RIGHT SIDE INBOARD TRAILING EDGE FLAP MISSING ALONG WITH DAMAGE TO THE RIGHT AFT FUSELAGE AND LEADING EDGE OF RIGHT HORIZONTAL STABILIZER.

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.
