## Narrative

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

THE PILOT WAS COMING IN FOR LANDING. THE PILOT STATED THAT DURING THE ROUNDOUT AND FLARE, NOT ENOUGH BACK PRESSURE WAS APPLIED TO KEEP THE NOSE OFF THE GROUND AND EXPERIENCED A RATHER HARD LANDING. POST FLIGHT INSPECTION REVEALED DAMAGE TO THE PROPELLER AND PROPELLER HUB ASSEMBLY.

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.
