## Narrative

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

PIC STATED THE LIGHT FOR THE AFT CARGO DOOR ILLUMINATED DURING ROLL OUT AND HE ABORTED TAKEOFF NOT KNOWING IF THE DOOR WAS OPEN OR NOT. THE AIRCRAFT WAS TAXIED BACK AND THE DOOR WAS FOUND TO BE CLOSED. THE DOOR WAS CLOSED AND THE LIGHT WENT OFF.

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.
