What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) Pilot stated that he was returning from tricities airport to john tune airport at Nashville, TN, with five passengers. He stated that during preparation to land at john tune the nose gear did not lock in place. He stated that he pumped the gear to no avail. He communicated with the Nashville ATCT for an emergency landing at Nashville. He stated that on final approach to runway 20C he shut down both engines. He stated that he landed on the main landing gear and held the nose of the aircraft off until he lost most of his forward speed. The aircraft slid 541 feet after the nose touched down. Subsequent inspection of the aircraft revealed that a hydraulic line to the nose gear erupted and leaked the fluid and pressure.
