## Narrative

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

(-23) VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE AIRCRAFT LANDING GEAR, GEAR ASSEMBLIES, WHEEL WELL AREA AND ASSOCIATED WIRING PROVED TO BE INCONCLUSIVE AS TO THE CAUSE OF THE LANDING GEAR COLLAPSE DURING ROLL OUT. ^PRIVACY DATA OMITT^

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.
