## Narrative

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

AIRMAN LANDED AT THE HOMER AIRPORT. DURING ROLLOUT AIRMAN STATED HE HEARD A LOUD POP AND SAW THE LEFT MAIN LANDING GEAR FOLD UP AND HIT THE LEFT WING STRUT. HE HAD ENOUGH SPEED AND MOMENTUM TO CONTINUE FURTHER DOWN THE RUNWAY. HE HELD OFF THE WING AND FUSELAGE AS LONG AS HE COULD, UNTIL THE AIRCRAFT SLOWED ENOUGH AND DROPPED ON ITS LEFT WING AS IT CAME TO A STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE RUNWAY HITTING A RUNWAY LIGHT.

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.
