## Narrative

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

(-5) N86D WAS CLEARED FOR ILS-1 APPROACH AND CLEARED FOR LANDING ON RUNWAY 1 @ APPROXIMATELY 1112 CST. TOUCH DOWN SEEMED NORMAL ON THE TWO MAIN LANDING GEARS WHEN THE NOSE TOUCHED DOWN THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL THUMPING SOUND AND THE NOSE COLLAPSED THE PROP STRUCK THE RUNWAY AND THE MAINS IMMEDIATELY COLLAPSED, PER RICHARD L PERRY STATEMENT, WHO WAS THE PILOT-IN-COMMAND. AN INSPECTION OF THE LEFT MAIN GEAR WHEEL FOUND THE DOWN PRESSURE LINE ELBOW (AN822-4D) SHEARED OFF AT THE HYDRAULIC ACTUATING CYLINDER.

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.
