## Narrative

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

(-23) AIRCRAFT EXPERIENCED AN UNSAFE NOSE GEAR INDICATION ON THE GROUND AT SAN LOUIS OBISPO AIRPORT. THE "THREE GREEN" INDICATION CAME BACK ON AND A MECHANIC VERIFIED THAT THE GEAR WAS DOWN AND LOCKED. THE AIRCRAFT WAS THEN FERRIED TO BURBANK, WHEN, IN CRUISE, THE UNSAFE NOSE GEAR INDICATION CAME BACK ON. PILOT CALLED BURBANK AND TALKED TO OPS/MAINTENANCE WITH LITTLE HELP FROM EITHER. HE FELT THAT BECAUSE A MECHANIC VERIFIED THAT THE GEAR WAS DOWN, AND BECAUSE HE WAS FERRYING THE AIRPLANE WITH THE GEAR DOWN EVERYTHING WAS OK. ON LANDING AT BURBANK THE NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED.

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.
