The NTSB's narrative final · quoted from the NTSB record

The pilot reported that while in the landing flare, a deer ran in front of the airplane from the right side. He initiated a go-around, but the deer struck the left wing and the airplane veered off the left side of the runway. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the left wing. No preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane were found that would have precluded normal operation.

About this page

Everything above comes from the NTSB's public accident database: the narrative, probable cause and findings are the NTSB's own words, and the coded tables behind its report (pilot, aircraft, flight, weather, injuries, sequence of events) are written out in plain English. Pilots' ages, home towns and medical details are left out on purpose. The documents and photographs are the NTSB's docket, the folder of records gathered during the investigation, shown as the NTSB released them (the NTSB redacts some personal details first) and listed under the NTSB's own titles. This site's own text never names pilots, passengers or anyone else involved. A preliminary report describes what is known soon after the event and can change; the final report, with the probable cause, usually follows one to two years later and this page is refreshed when it does. Case number CEN23LA055.
