## Narrative

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

(-23) IN THE LANDING FLARE, THE PILOT REPORTED HE FELT THE RIGHT RUDDER PEDAL JAM IN THE "NEUTRAL POSITION". (LEFT RUDDER PEDAL FELT NORMAL). UPON LANDING THERE WAS NO RIGHT RUDDER AVAILABLE AND THE A/C COULD NOT TURN RIGHT FOR TAXI. THE PILOT CLEARED THE RUNWAY TO THE LEFT AND WAS SUBSEQUENTLY TOWED TO THE LINE. BY THE TIME THE A/C REACHED THE HANGAR THE RUDDER PROBLEM CORRECTED ITSELF. 6/18 A RAYTHEON FIELD TEAM PERFORMED AN INSPECTION OF THE RIGGING AND RUDDER SYSTEM COMPONENTS. THEY FOUND A "WOOD SCREW" IN THE RUDDER PULLEY, AND SECURED A LOOSE RUDDER TRIM WIRE BUNDLE TO CLEAR RUDDER STOPS. THE A/C WAS THEN FOUND AIRWORTHY AND RETURNED TO SERVICE. THE PILOT/OWNER HAS FLOWN THE A/C WITHOUT INCIDENT.

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.
