## Narrative

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

(-23) DURING LANDING WITH A LEFT CROSSWIND, THE PILOT FELT AN OSCILLATION DEVELOP AFTER THE RIGHT WING DESCENDED AND THE TIRE TOUCHED THE RUNWAY. HE THOUGHT HE HAD A FLAT TIRE ON THE RIGHT SIDE AND STARTED TO USE BRAKES TO ASSIST IN STEERING AND SLOWING THE AIRPLANE. THE RIGHT WING DROPPED DOWN TO THE GROUND AND THE AIRPLANE VEERED OFF THE RUNWAY TO THE RIGHT. THE ENTIRE RIGHT LANDING GEAR LEG AND SUPPORT PULLED OUT OF THE WING WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. THE FORWARD TRUNNION FAILED AND RELEASED THE LANDING GEAR LEG.

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.
