## Narrative

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

PILOT'S NARRATIVE:

ON DAY AUGUST 7, 2023, I WAS CLEAR TO LAND ON THE RUNWAY 9R WITH SOME CROSSWIND, RIGHT TRAFFIC PATTERN SHORT FINAL KEEPING CENTER LINE NOSE CORRECTION TO THE RIGHT TO SPEED SET FOR FINAL APPROACH FLAPS SET, FOR CROSSWIND LANDING TECHNIQUE, RUDDER TO LINE YOUR NOSE UP WITH THE RUNWAY, AND AILERONS TO CORRECT FOR RIGHT DRIFT ALL THE WAY FROM FINAL APPROACH TO TOUCHDOWN.

AFTER A TOUCHDOWN ROLLING A FEW METERS BUT THE WIND GAVE THE EFFECT OF PUSHING TOO MUCH FROM THE RIGHT SHOWING THE FEELING OF DRIFT ON THE PLANE TO AVOID THAT FEELING I STOPPED BUT KEPT STRAIGHT THE AIRPLANE ENDED UP ON THE GRASS BUT SMOOTHLY WITH NO DAMAGE ON THE AIRCRAFT AND NOT AN INJURY AT ALL FOR ANY OF THE OCCUPANTS.

I DID A 180-TURN TAKING THE AIRPLANE OUT OF THE GRASS, AND AFTER MIAMI AUTHORITY VISUAL INSPECTION GAVE THE CLEARANCE, I TAXIED THE PLANE TO THE RAMP. PROCEEDING WITH MORE DETAILS INSPECTIONS SEEN THAT WASN’T ANY DAMAGE ON ANY PARTS OF THE PLANE.

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.
