## Narrative

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

ON APRIL 28, 2013, AT APPROXIMATELY 0930 MDT, N4420C, A CE-195 DURING LANDING ROLLOUT LOST CONTROL, GROUND LOOPING AND DEPARTED THE LEFT SIDE OF RUNWAY 22 AT DOUBLE EAGLE II AIRPORT, (KAEG), ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO.  THE AIRCRAFT CAME TO REST UPSIDE DOWN AND SUSTAINED SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE.  THE PRIVATE PILOT AND HIS PASSENGER RECEIVED NO INJURIES.

05/06/13 PILOT INTERVIEW:

THE FLIGHT ON 04/28/13 WAS A PLEASURE FLIGHT - NO INSTRUCTION.

THE PILOT HAD JUST COMPLETED HIS FOURTH LANDING.  THE TOUCH DOWN WAS THREE POINT ON THE CENTERLINE OF RUNWAY 22 AT KAEG.  THE AIRCRAFT ROLLED STRAIGHT FOR 500 TO 600 FT.  THE AIRCRAFT SUDDENLY BEGAN SWERVING TO THE LEFT WITH THE PILOT IMMEDIATELY APPLYING RIGHT RUDDER WITH NO COUNTER EFFECT.  THE AIRCRAFT DEPARTED THE LEFT SIDE OF THE RUNWAY AND CAME TO REST UPSIDE DOWN.  THE PILOT BELIEVED THAT THE TAILWHEEL WAS CASTERING AT THE TIME OF LOSS OF CONTROL.

TWO A/W INSPECTORS  FROM THE ABQ FSDO INSPECTED THIS AIRCRAFT A MINIMUM OF TWO TIMES AND BOTH BELIEVE THAT THE TAIL WHEEL WAS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY.
