## Narrative

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

THE PIC REPORTED HE WAS LANDING WITH A LEFT CROSSWIND WHEN THE AIRCRAFT SUDDENLY VEERED LEFT SHORTLY AFTER TOUCHDOWN.  THE LEFT WING ROSE UP AS THE AIRCRAFT TURNED LEFT, AND THIS CAUSED A PROP STRIKE AND A RIGHT WING SCRAPE.

NTSB GAVE PERMISSION TO MOVE THE AIRCRAFT TO THE RAMP AREA.

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.
