## Narrative

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

CFI STATED THAT HIS COMMERCIAL STUDENT WAS CLEARED TO LAND AT TTD ON RUNWAY 25. HE WAS ASKED TO PERFORM A SOFT FIELD LANDING. THE STUDENT LANDED THE AIRCRAFT WITHOUT INCIDENT BUT THEN RAISED THE GEAR HANDLE INSTEAD OF THE FLAP HANDLE DURING ROLLOUT. THE NOSE LANDING GEAR (NLG) COLLAPSED ALLOWING THE PROPELLER TO STRIKE THE GROUND AND CAUSING THE ENGINE TO SUDDENLY STOP. BOTH CFI AND STUDENT EXITED THE AIRCRAFT WITHOUT INJURY. THE PROPELLER, NLG DOORS AND ENGINE COWLING SUPPORT STRUCTURE WERE DAMAGED BY CONTACT WITH THE GROUND BUT PRIMARY STRUCTURE DID NOT APPEAR DAMAGED.
