## Narrative

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

PILOT^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^ STATED THAT WHILE LANDING AT JOHNSON CREEK (3U2) HE LINED UP FOR A LANDING ON RUNWAY 17. JUST BEFORE TOUCHDOWN THE AIRCRAFT SUDDENLY "QUIT FLYING" AND LANDED HARD. HE STATED HE TRIED TO ADD POWER BUT IT WAS TOO LATE TO CORRECT THE SINK RATE AND SUBSEQUENT HARD LANDING. HE ALSO STATED THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING FINE AND HAD NO ANOMALIES.

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.
