## Narrative

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

THE PILOT WAS FLYING THE AIRCRAFT FROM FGX TO SYM FOR AN ANNUAL INSPECTION. PRIOR TO LANDING ,THE PILOT NOTICED A NOISE HE DID NOT RECOGNIZE, WHICH WAS THE GEAR UP WARNING HORN. THE PILOT CONTINUED HIS LANDING, THEN HEARING A LOUD NOISE UPON TOUCHDOWN, WHICH WAS THE PROPS AND FLAPS CONTACTING THE RUNWAY SURFACE. ELECTING TO DO A GO AROUND, THE PILOT THEN REALIZED WHAT HAD HAPPENED, AND WHAT THE INITIAL NOISE WAS. THE PILOT PUT THE LANDING GEAR DOWN, AND LANDED WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT. DURING TAXI IN, THE PILOT RETRACTED THE FLAPS AND NOTICED NOISE, THIS FROM THE FLAPS BEING 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.
