## Narrative

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

PILOT STATED THAT ABOUT 20 MINUTES AFTER DEPARTURE HE NOTICED THE ENGINE OIL PRESSURE AT ZERO BUT ALL OTHER INDICATIONS WERE NORMAL. PILOT RETURNED TO AIRFIELD AND LOWERED FLAPS AND LANDING GEAR WITH A GREEN LIGHT. UPON TOUCHDOWN THE LANDING GEAR COLLAPSED CAUSING MINOR DAMAGE TO THE UNDERSIDE OF AIRCRAFT AND DAMAGING THE PROPELLER.

Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
