## Narrative

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

(-23) PILOT ADVISED THAT, DURING HIS ATTEMPT TO TURN AROUND ON THE NARROW RUNWAY, THE RH ENGINE FALTERED AND THE ASSYMETRICAL THRUST CAUSED THE RH LANDING GEAR TO TRAVEL OFF THE PAVEMENT. PILOT AGREED THAT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER TO HAVE SLOWED TO A COMPLETE STOP WHILE ALLOWING THE HOT ENGINES TO STABILIZE BEFORE ATTEMPTING A TURN WITH DIFFERENTIAL POWER.

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.
