## Narrative

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

N514DT WAS APPROACHING RUNWAY 28 AT BLOCK ISLAND FOR LANDING.  RADAR DATA INDICATES THE AIRCRAFT OVERSHOT THE FINAL APPROACH COURSE BY APPROXIMATELY 0.25 MILES AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS NOT ALIGNED WITH THE RUNWAY UNTIL ABOUT .5 MILES FROM THE RUNWAY THRESHOLD.  AIRPORT PERSONNEL STATED THEY WITNESSED THE AIRCRAFT PORPOISE TWICE ON THE RUNWAY BEFORE THE PILOT ADDED FULL POWER TO GO AROUND AND TRY THE LANDING A SECOND TIME.  THE SECOND LANDING WAS UNEVENTFUL AND THE PILOT STATED HE NOTICED THE PROPELLER DAMAGE WHEN SECURING THE AIRCRAFT AFTER THE SECOND, SUCCESSFUL, LANDING.  THE PILOT STATED HE WAS UNAWARE HE HAD STRUCK THE PROPELLER DURING THE FIRST LANDING ATTEMPT.  HE DID STATE HIS SECOND LANDING WAS "LIKE KISSING THE PAVEMENT" AND VERY SMOOTH.  THE WEATHER AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT WAS REPORTED AS 22008KT 10SM CLR 27/17 A3005.

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.
