## Narrative

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

AIRCRAFT ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^, A PIPER PA-46-310P, ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^, WAS CONDUCTING A LANDING AT TREASURE COAST INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (FRP) ON 6/1/2026. DURING LANDING / ROLL-OUT THE NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED. AIRPORT CONDITIONS AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT WERE VMC/VFR AND THE RUNWAY WAS DRY.

UPON INSPECTION OF THE AIRCRAFT, THE IIC FOUND THE NOSE LANDING GEAR (RETRACTABLE), LANDING GEAR DOORS, LOWER ENGINE FAIRING RECEIVED ABRASIVE DAMAGE FROM CONTACT WITH THE RUNWAY SURFACE. THE PROPELLER WAS DESTROYED DUE TO CONTACT WITH THE RUNWAY SURFACE. THE PROPELLER DAMAGE INDICATES THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING AND UNDER POWER. A FUNCTIONAL CHECK OF THE COCKPIT LANDING GEAR ANNUNCIATOR LIGHTS WAS CONDUCTED AND FOUND TO BE IN WORKING CONDITION. THE LANDING GEAR CIRCUIT BREAKERS WERE CLOSED AND DID NOT INDICATE SIGNS OF BEING TRIPPED.

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.
