## Narrative

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

AIRCRAFT WAS LANDING AT OCEAN CITY MUNICIPAL AIRPORT JUST AFTER DARK ON RUNWAY 2. THE APPROACH WAS LOW AND THE AIRCRAFT HIT THE TOP OF THE TREES. THE LEFT WING LEADING EDGE WAS DAMAGED.

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.
