## Narrative

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

(-23) AFTER LANDING ON ROLLOUT THE INSTRUCTOR APPLIED PEDAL TO CORRECT AN UNCOMMANDED DRIFT TO THE RIGHT OF THE RUNWAY. INITIAL PEDAL INPUT DID NOT CORRECT THE DRIFT. INSTRUCTOR USED FULL PEDAL AND AIRCRAFT SPUN TO THE LEFT DAMAGING THE LEFT SIDE LANDING GEAR. STUDENT MAY HAVE HAD HIS FEET ON THE PEDALS CAUSING THE INITIAL DRIFT.

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.
