## Narrative

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

PILOT SELECTED GEAR DOWN, RECIEVED 2 GREEN INDICATION AND A GEAR INTRANSIT INDICATION.  TRIED TO TROUBLESHOOT.  TOWER VERIFIED NO NOSE GEAR VISIBLE. DECISION WAS MADE TO LAND AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO LOWER GEAR.

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.
