## Narrative

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

NARRATIVE: ON MARCH 27, 1995, MR. DAVID D. BRADLEY ACTED AS PILOT IN COMMAND OF CESSNA CE-172, N77ER, ON AN INSTRUCTIONAL FLIGHT AT JESSE VIERTEL MEMORIAL AIRPORT, BOONVILLE, MISSOURI. MR. BRADLEY AND STUDENT PILOT LOUIS FRECH DEPARTED THE AIRPORT AT APPROXIMATELY 1600 CST TO CONDUCT AIRWORK IN THE PRACTICE AREA. MR. BRADLEY AND HIS STUDENT WERE AWARE THERE WAS A STRONG CROSSWIND AT THE AIRPORT. MR. BRADLEY SAID HE DISCUSSED CROSSWIND LANDING TECHNIQUES WITH HIS STUDENT IN THE PATTERN AND WHILE ON APPROACH TO LAND ON RUNWAY 18. UPON TOUCHDOWN, THE STUDENT PILOT, WHO WAS MANIPULATING THE CONTROLS, APPLIED EXCESSIVE BRAKE PRESSURE TO MAKE THE TAXIWAY TURNOFF. THE AIRCRAFT LEFT THE RUNWAY, RAN ACROSS A CORNER OF THE GRASS INFIELD SURFACE AND HIT THE EDGE OF THE TAXIWAY CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE NOSEWHEEL AND WHEEL FAIRING. TIRE RESIDUE ON THE RUNWAY INDICATED THAT THE RIGHT BRAKE WAS ACTIVATED CAUSING THE AIRCRAFT TO WEATHERVANE INTO THE WIND AND THEN SWERVE OFF OF RUNWAY 18. THE EDGE OF THE TAXIWAY, WHICH WAS APPROXIMATELY FOUR INCHES ABOVE THE ADJACENT GRASS SURFACE, CAUSED THE NOSEWHEEL TO FOLD WHEN IT MADE CONTACT WITH THE TAXIWAY. MR. BRADLEY, WHO IS ALSO A DESIGNATED PILOT EXAMINER, HAS NO PREVIOUS RECORD OF ACCIDENTS, INCIDENTS, OR VIOLATIONS. HE WAS COUNSELED ON APRIL 12, 1995. THIS INCIDENT REPORT IS CLOSED.

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.
