## Narrative

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

PILOT TAXIED TO RUNWAY 31 AT KDLS AND RAN UP THE ENGINE WITH FULL RUNWAY IN FRONT OF HIM.  PILOT WAS CLOSELY MONITORING ENGINE INSTRUMENTS DURING TAKEOFF ROLL BECAUSE OF RECENT ENGINE MAINTENANCE AND DID NOT NOTICE LACK OF AIRSPEED INDICATION.  AT APPROXIMATELY TAKEOFF SPEED, PILOT NOTICED THAT THE AIRSPEED INDICATOR WAS READING ZERO.  PILOT STATED THAT HE MAY HAVE UNINTENTIONALLY PULLED BACK ON YOKE.    ALTHOUGH THE AIRCRAFT HAD LIFTED FROM THE RUNWAY THE PILOT DECIDED TO REDUCE POWER TO LAND AND CAUSED THE AIRCRAFT TO PORPOIS ABOUT THREE TIMES BEFORE HITTING THE RUNWAY HARD ON THE NOSE GEAR.  NOSE LANDING GEAR COLLAPSED AND AIRCRAFT SKIDDED STRAIGHT AHEAD TO A STOP CAUGHT FIRE AND BURNED.  PILOT IMMEDIATELY EXITED THE AIRCRAFT.
