## Narrative

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

THE PILOT COMPLETED A SHORT FIELD LANDING ON RUNWAY 25, INITIATING AN IMMEDIATE ROLLOUT TO THE TAXIWAY. THE PILOT STATED HE FELT THE AIRCRAFT SINK WING LOW TO THE RIGHT SIDE AS IF, HE ENCOUNTERED A FLAT TIRE. THE AIRCRAFT BECAME DISABLED AND ASSISTANCE WAS NEEDED TO REMOVE THE AIRCRAFT FROM THE RUNWAY. AN INDIVIDUAL WHO HAD WITNESSED THE INCIDENT STATED IT LOOKED AS THOUGH HE TRAVELED OFF THE RUNWAY INTO HIS ROLLOUT HOWEVER, THE PILOT STATED HE REMAINED ON THE RUNWAY. OTHER THAN A SLIGHT BUCKLE OF HIS LANDING GEAR LEG THERE WAS NO FURTHER DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT. IT APPEARS THE PILOT MAY HAVE INDUCED A HARD LANDING GIVEN THE DAMAGE TO THE GEAR/STRUT LEG BUT, CANNOT BE SUBSTANTIATED. DURING INSPECTION AND LOG BOOK REVIEW, SHOWS DOCUMENTED MAINTENANCE ON THE GEAR TO INCLUDE ADJUSTMENTS COMPLIED WITH ON JUNE OF 2013. THE WORK COMPLETED AND SIGNED OFF BY, THE ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^OPERATOR THAT IS NOT APPROPRIATELY RATED FOR THE TASKS OR THIS TYPE WORK. ALTHOUGH THE RELEVANCE EXISTS, CANNOT BE DEEMED AS THE PROBABLE CAUSE OR ASSOCIATED SINCE THE MAINTENANCE WAS PERFORMED MULTIPLE YEARS AGO. THIS INCIDENT IS CONSIDERED ISOLATED AND NOT ASSOCIATED WITH PREVIOUS MAINTENANCE AND RECOMMENDS THE PIC; RECEIVE COUNSELING ON LANDING PROCEDURES WITH LIGHT AIRCRAFT.

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.
