## Narrative

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

WHILE PRACTICING IFR APPROACHES THE PILOT NOTICED THE GEAR WAS NOT EXTENDED AND TRIED TO EXTEND GEAR MANUALLY.  PILOT COULD NOT MANUALLY EXTEND GEAR AND LANDED GEAR UP.  AIRCRAFT SUSTAINED MINOR DAMAGE AND THE OCCUPANTS WERE UNHARMED.

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.
