## Narrative

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

NARRATIVE: N86JC FRONT GEAR FAILED ON LANDING ROLL-OUT. PROP BENT, COWLING WAS DAMAGED, OTHER POSSIBLE DAMAGE. STILL INVESTIGATING ELECTRICAL FAILURE - DID NOT GET UNSAFE GEAR CONDITION. UNPREDICTABLE ELECTRICAL FAILURE. LANDING GEAR RIGGING/LUBRICATION.

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.
