## Narrative

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

WHILE TRANSITIONING FROM THE TWO-SEAT TO THE SINGLE-SEAT MODEL, PILOT WAS PERFORMING TOUCH-AND-GO. AFTER LANDING, PILOT APPLIED TAKE OFF POWER AND, DUE TO THE ADDITIONAL POWER IN THE SINGLE-SEAT MODEL, THE PILOT EXPERIENCED A TORQUE ROLL AND BEGAN TO DEVIATE OFF THE RUNWAY.  HE THEN PULLED BACK POWER IN ANTICIPATION OF LEAVING THE RUNWAY.  AIRCRAFT DID DEPART THE RUNWAY SUSTAINING MINOR DAMAGE TO THE LOWER RIGHT WING TIP.

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.
