What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) Owner/operator was receiving a checkout in his newly purchased CE-195 aircraft for insurance purposes. He hired a CE-195 "expert" for this purpose and during approximately his 13th landing, with winds light and variable, he touched down slightly left of centerline. As the aircraft rolled out, a correction was not made "aggressively" enough and the aircraft continued to track left of the runway centerline. Right rudder and brake were finally applied prior to the left main leaving the left side of the runway, and this "correction" (made by both the owner and check out pilot) caused the ground loop to the right, with the left wingtip contacting the runway and collapsing the left main gear leg causing minor damage to both the left main landing gear and left wingtip.
