## Narrative

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

AFTER MULTIPLE TOUCH-AND-GO LANDINGS, NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED ON LANDING ROLLOUT, RESULTING IN DAMAGE TO PROPELLERS, LOWER NOSE SKIN, AND NOSE GEAR DOORS.  DISCREPANCIES WERE FOUND IN THE NOSE GEAR DOWNLOCK ASSEMBLY, AND MAINTENANCE RECORDS PERTAINING TO LANDING GEAR MAINTENANCE.

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.
