## Narrative

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

ON LANDING ROLLOUT ON RUNWAY 24 AT WINGS FIELD, APPROXIMATELY 1000-1500 FEET AFTER TOUCHDOWN, THE PILOT HEARD A THUMP AND THOUGHT HE MAY HAVE STRUCK A DEER OR OTHER ANIMAL, BUT THOUGHT IT MAY HAVE RUN OFF.

AFTER ARRIVING ON THE AIRCRAFT PARKING RAMP, AND EXITING THE AIRCRAFT, THE PILOT LOOKED OVER THE AIRCRAFT AND NOTICED SOME DAMAGE TO THE RIGHT MAIN LANDING GEAR FAIRING. HE SAID HE DID NOT NOTICE ANY OTHER DAMAGE, BUT IT WAS DARK OUT.

ON 10/24/2018, THE AIRCRAFT WAS INSPECTED FOR ANY ADDITIONAL DAMAGE. BESIDES THE RIGHT MLG FAIRING DAMAGE, THE RIGHT WING HAD EVIDENCE OF DAMAGE; A SURFACE CRACK ON THE TOP SURFACE APPROXIMATELY 6 INCHES FROM THE LEADING EDGE AND APPROXIMATELY 12 TO 14 INCHES LONG.

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.
