## Narrative

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

PILOT MADE THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT:

ON APPROACH I WAS INITIALLY HIGH AND

CORRECTED ON GLIDE SLOPE INDICATION AND SLOWED TO 130 KNOTS WITHIN 1 MILE OF THE RUNWAY. I SLOWED TO VREF OF 113 1/8 MILE FROM THE RUNWAY. I CONTINUED A STABILIZED APPROACH AND WHEN I WAS ABOUT THE 500 FOOT MARKERS I PULLED THE POWER LEVERS TO IDLE AND FLARED. I TOUCHED DOWN ABOUT THE 1000 FOOT

MARKERS AND THE STALL WARNING CHIRPED MOMENTARILY AS I TOUCHED DOWN. I APPLIED FULL REVERSE AT TOUCH DOWN THERE BEING NO WAY TO GO AROUND AT KODIAK I WANTED TO SLOW AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, CONDITION LEVERS WERE IN LOW IDLE. AT THIS POINT THE NOSE OF THE AIRCRAFT STARTED TO RISE DRAMATICALLY INTO THE AIR, I APPLIED FULL FORWARD ELEVATOR AND BROUGHT THE POWER LEVERS OUT OF REVERSE. THIS LOWERED THE NOSE OF THE AIRCRAFT BACK TO THE GROUND. NEITHER I NOR MY FO BELIEVED THAT WE HAD STRUCK THETAIL OF THE AIRCRAFT AT THIS TIME.

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.
