## Narrative

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

ON MAY 6, 2020 A PILOT WAS PERFORMING TOUCH-N-GOES IN HIS AIRCRAFT, N4HH.  THE PILOT COMPLETED HIS FIRST TOUCH-N-GO WITHOUT INCIDENT.

ON HIS SECOND ATTEMPT TO LAND HE FAILED TO EXTEND HIS LANDING GEAR AND TOUCHED DOWN WITH THE LANDING GEAR RETRACTED.  THE AIRCRAFT SLID DOWN THE RUNWAY SEVERAL HUNDRED FEET BEFORE STOPPING ON THE RUNWAY.

UPON INSPECTION OF THE AIRCRAFT THE NEXT DAY, INVESTIGATORS VIEWED THROUGH THE WINDOW OF N4HH THAT THE LAND GEAR WAS IN THE "UP", RETRACTED, POSITION.

DAMAGE WAS VIEWED ON ALL THREE PROPELLER BLADES, THE LEFT SIDE FLAP AND THE AREAS OF THE UNDER CARRIAGE.

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.
