## Narrative

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

PIC DEPARTED TO DESTINATION AIRPORT. PIC STATED THAT DUE TO AN AVIATION EVENT AT THE DESTINATION AIRPORT THE TRAFFIC PATTERN WAS BUSIER THAN USUAL. ADDITIONALLY, PIC STATED THAT HE WAS DISTRACTED DUE TO OPERATIONAL DIFFERENCES (RPM RESTRICTION) OF NEWLY INSTALLED PROPELLER. AS THE PIC LANDED, THE PROPELLER STRUCK THE RUNWAY, AND THE AIRCRAFT SETTLED ONTO THE RETRACTED LANDING GEAR. THE PIC STEERED THE AIRCRAFT ONTO THE GRASS BEFORE THE AIRCRAFT CAME TO A REST.

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.
