## Narrative

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

PILOT STATED SHE REDUCED POWER, LEFT FLAPS DOWN AND APPLIED BRAKING WHICH WAS FOLLOWED BY AIRCRAFT FURTHER PULLING TO THE RIGHT. AIRCRAFT THEN LEFT THE RUNWAY, HIT A TAXIWAY SIGN AND CAME TO REST JUST NORTH OF TAXIWAY CHARLIE. AIRCRAFT NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED SHORTLY BEFORE STOPPING. SKID MARKS ON RUNWAY 7R, TAXIWAY C6 AND THE DIRT NEXT TO C6 WERE CONSISTENT WITH AN AIRCRAFT HAVING LANDED WHILE YAWED TO THE RIGHT. ANNUAL INSPECTION OF AIRCRAFT WAS PERFORMED ON 3-12-08. LEFT HAND TIRE WAS CHANGED DURING INSPECTION. 50 HOUR INSPECTION WAS PERFORMED ON 2-21-08, IN WHICH THE RIGHT HAND BRAKE LININGS WERE CHANGED. THESE WERE LAST ANNOTATED RECORD ENTRIES INVOLVING MAINTENANCE ON EITHER BRAKE. NO OTHER MAINTENANCE RECORD ENTRIES WERE FOUND CONCERNING BRAKING, DIRECTIONAL CONTROL, TRIM, OR OTHER ITEMS THAT MAY HAVE SUPPORTED THE STATEMENTS MADE BY THE PILOT ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.
