## Narrative

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

DURING LANDING PILOT STATED HE HAD A GREEN LIGHT FOR THE NOSE GEAR AND THE MAIN GEAR HANDLE WAS IN THE DOWN POSITION AND LOCKED DOWN.  AT TOUCH DOWN THE NOSE GEAR WAS DOWN AND THE MAIN GEAR WAS NOT DOWN.  AIRCRAFT SUBSTAINED MINOR DAMAGE TO WING TIPS AND ENGINE COWLING.

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.
