## Narrative

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

DURING FINAL APPROACH INTO MIAMI EXECUTIVE AIRPORT (KTMB) TO RUNWAY 27L ON JANUARY 15, 2019 AT APPROXIMATELY 2000 LOCAL TIME, THE PILOT OF N225KT, A 1993 MOONEY M20M, SERIAL NUMBER 27-0165, STATED THAT WHEN HE SELECTED GEAR DOWN HE HEARD A POP AND THE COCK PIT LIGHTING WENT DARK INCLUDING THE GEAR INDICATION. THE PILOT DECIDED TO CONTINUE THE APPROACH IN AND COMMITTED THE LANDING BECAUSE IT WAS DARK AND HE COULD NOT SEE ANY OF HIS INSTRUMENTS AND WAS NOT SURE THAT WHAT POSITION THAT THE GEAR WAS AT. PRIOR TO LANDING THE PILOT HEARD AN ALARM SOUND BUT DID NOT KNOW IF IT WAS THE STALL WARNING OR GEAR WARNING. AS HE FLARED THE AIRCRAFT THE PILOT HEARD SCRAPPING SOUNDS AND THE PROPELLER STRUCK THE RUNWAY AND THE AIRCRAFT SLID TO A STOP.

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.
