## Narrative

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

(-23)AT APPROXIMATELY 1500 HOURS ON 10 JULY 2000 THE PILOT LANDED AT CLINTON MUNICIPAL AIRPORT. ON LANDING ROLLOUT THE NOSE GEAR STARTED TO SHIMMY.  THE PILOT PULLED BACK ON THE CONTROL YOKE TO STOP THE NOSE WHEEL SHIMMY BUT THE AIRCRAFT WAS NOT GOING FAST ENOUGH FOR THE ELEVATOR TO BE VERY EFFECTIVE.  AS THE PILOT STARTED TO EXIT THE RUNWAY THE NOSE FORK BROKE.  THE AIRCRAFT CAME TO REST AT THE INTERSECTION OF RUNWAYS 21 AND 32 WHERE IT WAS RECOVERED BY GROUND PERSONNEL.  THE NOSE GEAR FORK SHOWED SIGNS OF PREVIOUS CRACKING.

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.
