## Narrative

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

AIRCRAFT VIBRATED FROM MISSING BOLT A111-70 RETAINER NB-03-B-5229, BEARING RBJ337 AT ELEVATOR TRIM TAB PUSH ROD.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System.

Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
