## Narrative

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

AFTER A HARD LANDING, A BOLT FOR THE LEFT LANDING GEAR SHEARED, CAUSING THE AIRCRAFT TO VEER UNCONTROLLABLY TO THE LEFT. AIRCRAFT LEFT THE RUNWAY, RIGHT WHEEL WENT INTO A HOLE CAUSING THE AIRCRAFT TO TIP ON ITS NOSE AND SUFFER A PROP STRIKE. ONLY MINOR DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT AND NO INJURY TO THE PILOT.

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.
