What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) N4123T, a privately owned and operated Cessna 320 was on a second cross country landing following landing gear maintenance. Upon landing at Cedar Key, Florida, the pilot noticed the aircraft pulled hard to the right. Pilot corrected with control but stated that he could feel the right landing gear was not supporting weight of aircraft. Aircraft right propeller struck runway approximately 100 feet from initial point of landing contact. Aircraft veered to the right of the runway and wing made contact with ground just shortly before the aircraft departed runway in a large grassy area. Ground scarring indicated the contact propeller continued to rotate to the final stop.
