## Narrative

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

ON FINAL APPROACH TO RUNWAY 11, THE PILOT INITIATED A GO-AROUND DUE TO GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS.  THE PILOT STATED THAT THE TOWER ASKED IF SHE WOULD LIKE TO MAKE LEFT TRAFFIC FOR RUNWAY 20 AS THE WINDS WERE NOW FAVORING THAT RUNWAY.  THE PILOT RESPONDED YES AND MANEUVERED FOR RUNWAY 20.  ON FINAL APPROACH, THE PILOT REPORTED THAT EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL; HOWEVER UPON TOUCHDOWN, THE AIRCRAFT BOUNCED AND  SHE WAS UNABLE TO REGAIN CONTROL. THE AIRCRAFT AGAIN CONTACTED THE RUNWAY ON THE NOSE WHEEL WHICH RESULTED IN A NOSE LANDING GEAR COLLAPSE AND A SUBSEQUENT PROPELLER STRIKE. THE AIRCRAFT SLIDE TO A STOP JUST OFF THE LEFT SIDE OF THE RUNWAY.

## NTSB investigation

None matched to this report by aircraft and date. Search the NTSB's own records: https://data.ntsb.gov/carol-main-public/basic-search

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.
