## Narrative

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

IMMEDIATELY AFTER LANDING, ON ROLLOUT, PILOT (UNDER INSTRUCTION FOR TAIL WHEEL ENDORSEMENT) LOST DIRECTIONAL CONTROL OF THE AIRCRAFT.  AIRCRAFT DEPARTED LEFT SIDE OF THE RUNWAY AND IMPACTED TWO TAXI LIGHTS.

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.
