## Narrative

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

NORMAL TOUCHDOWN AT 85-90 KIAS.  NOSE GEAR CONTACTED RUNWAY AND RETRACTED BACK INTO GEAR WELL.  PROP CONTACTED RUNWAY.  PILOT SHUT DOWN ENGINE.  PILOT AND PASSENGER EVACUATED AIRCRAFT.  NO INJURIES TO PILOT OR PASSENGER.  MINOR DAMAGE TO AIRCRAFT.

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.
