## Narrative

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

(-23) THE INCIDENT OCCURRED ABOUT 2:45 THE AFTERNOON OF THE 30TH OF OCTOBER, AT THE HOUMA, LA AIRPORT (KHUM). PILOT WAS FLYING N727FA FROM NEW IBERIA. THE TRIP ORIGINATED FROM KBTR WITH A STOP AT L38 BEFORE PROCEEDING TO NEW IBERIA. PILOT MADE A VFR APPROACH TO RUNWAY 36 FROM A LONG LEFT BASE AS DIRECTED BY THE TOWER. THE APPROACH WAS NORMAL, THE GEAR WAS EXTENDED AND EVERY INDICATION WAS THAT IT WAS DOWN AND LOCKED. ON TOUCH DOWN OF THE MAINS PILOT THOUGHT AT FIRST HE HAD A FLAT TIRE ON THE RIGHT SIDE. THE MORE THE AIRCRAFT SLOWED THE MORE THE RIGHT SIDE STARTED TO SETTLE. THE AIRPLANE MADE A RIGHT TURN OFF THE RUNWAY. THE PILOT WAS ABLE TO STEER THE AIRPLANE AROUND A RUNWAY LIGHT AND OFF THE RUNWAY INTO THE GRASS. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND AIRCRAFT HAD MINOR DAMAGE.
