## Narrative

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

(-23) NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED AFTER LANDING ON RUNWAY 02 AT RST.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS ON THE LANDING ROLL-OUT AND ABOUT TO MAKE THE TURN FOR TAXIWAY BRAVO.  NO INJURIES AND ONLY MINOR DAMAGE.  AN M OR D WILL BE SUBMITTED AFTER COMPLETION OF REPAIRS.

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.
