## Narrative

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

ON APRIL 12, 2012, N3092J, A PIPER PA32R-301T, LANDED ON RUNWAY 6 AT KBHM AT APPROXIMATELY 2000 LOCAL. AFTER TOUCHDOWN AND LANDING ROLLOUT, THE AIRMAN STATED THAT AS HE WAS EXITING THE RUNWAY AT H3 TAXIWAY, THE AIRCRAFT VEERED TO THE LEFT AND THE LANDING GEAR COLLAPSED. THE AIRCAFT CAME TO REST JUST OUTSIDE OF THE RUNWAY EDGE, AND SUSTAINED MINOR DAMAGE. THE PROPELLER, BELLY SKIN, NOSE GEAR LANDING DOORS, AND THE AFT PORTION OF THE FLAPS ALSO WERE SLIGHTLY DAMAGED.

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.
