## Narrative

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

(-23) UPON LANDING THE NOSE WHEEL TOUCHED DOWN. SOME VIBRATION WAS FELT. AS THE SPEED DECREASED, THE VIBRATION BECAME WORSE BUT THE AIRCRAFT MAINTAINED CENTERLINE OF RUNWAY. AT APPROXIMATELY SIXTY (60) KNOTS OR LESS THE AIRCRAFT JERKED TO THE LEFT. THE PILOT REGAINED CONTROL BACK TO THE RUNWAY CENTERLINE. THE AIRCRAFT CLEARED THE RUNWAY AND STOPPED ON THE TAXIWAY. WHEN THE AIRCRAFT STOPPED, ATC CALLED THE AIRCRAFT AND INFORMED THEM THAT THEY HAD LOST THEIR NOSE WHEEL. FIRE RESCUE HAD ARRIVED AT THE AIRCRAFT. THE PILOT ASKED THE ATC TO CALL THE LOCAL FIXED BASE OPERATOR TO HAVE THE AIRCRAFT TOWED TO THEIR FACILITY. THE PILOT SHUT DOWN THE ENGINES.

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.
