## Narrative

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

PILOT STATED THAT DURING LANDING THE GEAR LEVER WAS SELECTED DOWN, 3 GREEN LIGHTS ILLUMINATED.  TOUCHDOWN WAS NORMAL WITH THREE GEAR FELT CONTACTING GROUND.  DURING ROLLOUT AND WHILE DECELERATING THROUGH APPROXIMATELY 40MPH THE LEFT GEAR COLLAPSED.  THE AIRCRAFT SLOWLY CONTACTED THE GROUND WITH THE LEFT WING AND VEERED OFF THE RUNWAY.  THE AIRCRAFT CAME TO A REST POINTED APPROXIMATELY 180 DEGREES DIRECTION FROM ORIGINAL ROLLOUT DIRECTION.  THE AIRPORT AUTHORITY ADVISED THE ON SCENE FAA INSPECTOR THAT ONE RUNWAY LIGHT AND TWO TAXI LIGHTS WERE DAMAGED AND REQUIRED REPLACEMENT.

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.
