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

ON DECEMBER 17, 2022, THE AIRCRAFT NOSE GEAR FAILED TO EXTEND ON APPROACH FROM KMY TO KFLO. THE PILOT IN CHARGE (PIC) NOTICED FAILURE OF NOSE GEAR TO EXTEND. PIC VERIFIED POWER, PROCEDURES, CHECKED CIRCUIT BREAKER AND INITIATED EMERGENCY LANDING GEAR EXTENSION; EMERGENCY GEAR EXTENSION ALSO FAILED. PIC LANDED THE AIRCRAFT IN A GEAR UP CONFIGURATION. UPON TOUCHDOWN GEAR BEGAN TO EXTEND. NO INJURIES REPORTED. MINOR DAMAGE TO NOSE OF AIRFRAME.

INITIAL ANALYSIS AND INSPECTION OF AIRCRAFT AND RECORDS COULD NOT DETERMINE PROBABLE CAUSE AND POSSIBLE NON-COMPLIANCE. REPORT WILL BE AMENDED AS NEW INFORMATION BECOMES AVAILABLE.

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.
