## Narrative

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

PILOT WAS CLEARED TO LAND ON RUNWAY 22, AIRCRAFT LANDED AT THE APPROACH END, THEN SPUN TO THE LEFT ONTO THE INFIELD GRASS. THE PILOT STATED THAT ON HIS APPROACH, HE WAS GIVEN WINDS 180 AT 6, GUSTING TO 10 AND HIGHLY VARIABLE. WHEN HE WAS ON FINAL, HE SAID THAT THE WINDS CHANGED TO 150 AT 6, GUSTING 10, BUT STILL FELT SAFE LANDING ON RUNWAY 22. THE PILOT STATED HE CONDUCTED A THREE-POINT LANDING, AND LINED UP OFF TO THE SIDE TO ACCOUNT FOR THE WIND. WHEN THE PILOT LANDED, HE STATED HE BRACED HIS LEFT ARM ON THE DASHBOARD, AND WHEN HE DID THAT, HIS ELBOW BUMPED THE THROTTLE, AND SENT HIM INTO THE GROUND LOOP. HE ALSO STATED THAT HE MIGHT HAVE BEEN ON THE LEFT BRAKE, WHICH WOULD HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THE GROUND LOOP.  THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT, AND NO INJURIES TO THE PILOT, BUT THE AIRCRAFT STRUCK A RUNWAY EDGE LIGHT AND BROKE IT.

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.
