Narrative:

At approximately XA00 EST, my SR22 suffered a propeller strike while landing at cxy, runway 30. The aircraft was on a part 91 VFR flight from lbe to cxy. Approximately 10 mins into the flight, the pilot's door came unlatched and a precautionary landing was made at jst. The door was closed after landing and the flight resumed. This added stress may have been a contributing factor. Upon approaching cxy, the aircraft was directed to follow a cessna doing touch and goes on runway 30. After entering downwind, the pilot lost sight of the cessna and was advised that the cessna was over the numbers. The pilot glanced down and saw an aircraft on a runway and headed towards it. That runway was runway 26 and the pilot advised the tower that the aircraft was stationary. The tower gave the pilot vectors for a new approach to runway 30. The final approach was made at 95 KTS, which is 10 KTS over the recommended airspeed. The aircraft bounced on touchdown and thereafter bounced a second time. The second bounce was more severe and the pilot elected to do a go around. The pilot believed that the propeller strike occurred on the second bounce. However, there was no propeller vibration and the engine appeared normal. The pilot requested a long final and was handed to har approach. The pilot received vectors for a 5 mi final and a normal landing was accomplished. After engine shutdown, the pilot saw 3 propeller blades were bent. In retrospect, a go around after the first bounce would have prevented the propeller strike.

Title: SMA PLT LOST CTL DURING LNDG TOUCHDOWN RESULTING IN A PROP STRIKE CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE PROP TIPS.

Narrative: AT APPROX XA00 EST, MY SR22 SUFFERED A PROP STRIKE WHILE LNDG AT CXY, RWY 30. THE ACFT WAS ON A PART 91 VFR FLT FROM LBE TO CXY. APPROX 10 MINS INTO THE FLT, THE PLT'S DOOR CAME UNLATCHED AND A PRECAUTIONARY LNDG WAS MADE AT JST. THE DOOR WAS CLOSED AFTER LNDG AND THE FLT RESUMED. THIS ADDED STRESS MAY HAVE BEEN A CONTRIBUTING FACTOR. UPON APCHING CXY, THE ACFT WAS DIRECTED TO FOLLOW A CESSNA DOING TOUCH AND GOES ON RWY 30. AFTER ENTERING DOWNWIND, THE PLT LOST SIGHT OF THE CESSNA AND WAS ADVISED THAT THE CESSNA WAS OVER THE NUMBERS. THE PLT GLANCED DOWN AND SAW AN ACFT ON A RWY AND HEADED TOWARDS IT. THAT RWY WAS RWY 26 AND THE PLT ADVISED THE TWR THAT THE ACFT WAS STATIONARY. THE TWR GAVE THE PLT VECTORS FOR A NEW APCH TO RWY 30. THE FINAL APCH WAS MADE AT 95 KTS, WHICH IS 10 KTS OVER THE RECOMMENDED AIRSPD. THE ACFT BOUNCED ON TOUCHDOWN AND THEREAFTER BOUNCED A SECOND TIME. THE SECOND BOUNCE WAS MORE SEVERE AND THE PLT ELECTED TO DO A GAR. THE PLT BELIEVED THAT THE PROP STRIKE OCCURRED ON THE SECOND BOUNCE. HOWEVER, THERE WAS NO PROP VIBRATION AND THE ENG APPEARED NORMAL. THE PLT REQUESTED A LONG FINAL AND WAS HANDED TO HAR APCH. THE PLT RECEIVED VECTORS FOR A 5 MI FINAL AND A NORMAL LNDG WAS ACCOMPLISHED. AFTER ENG SHUTDOWN, THE PLT SAW 3 PROP BLADES WERE BENT. IN RETROSPECT, A GAR AFTER THE FIRST BOUNCE WOULD HAVE PREVENTED THE PROP STRIKE.
