## Narrative

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

PILOT STATED THAT IT WAS A NORMAL APPROACH AND LANDING WHEN THE NOSE GEAR SUDDENLY STARTED TO COLLAPSE UPON LANDING. HE RECALLED ALL 3 INDICATING LIGHTS WERE GREEN. THE INITIAL TOUCHDOWN WAS SMOOTH. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. BOTH PROPELLERS WERE DAMAGE DUE TO A PROPELLER STRIKE DURING THE LANDING.

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.
