## Narrative

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

WHILE PRACTICING TOUCH AND GO LANDINGS WITH WINDS REPORTED AS 13 KTS GUSTING TO 21 KTS AIRCRAFT PORPOISED ON TOUCHDOWN AND THE PIC PERFORMED A GO AROUND. THE PIC MADE ANOTHER ATTEMPT AT LANDING AND PERFORMED ANOTHER GO AROUND THEN ON THE FINAL ATTEMPT LANDED WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT. WHILE SECURING THE AIRCRAFT ON THE RAMP THE PIC NOTICED DAMAGE TO THE PROPELLER.

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.
