THE AIRCRAFT TAXIED TO THE GATE AND LAX MAINTENANCE REPLACED BOTH LEFT WHEEL AND TIRE ASSEMBLIES.THE LEFT FIXED GEAR DOOR AND THE LEFT GEAR ANTI-SKID HARNESS HAD MINOR IMPACT DAMAGE AND WERE REPLACED. ALL SYSTEMS CHECKED NORMAL AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE. INSPECTOR JAMES GROAT AND AST CHRISTOPHER SHORT INSPECTED THE AIRCRAFT ON SITE AND INSPECTED THE REMOVED TIRE. THE NTSB DUTY OFFICER WAS NOTIFED OF THE INCIDENT.

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.
