## Narrative

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

MY INSTRUCTOR AND I WERE COMING IN FOR A LANDING AT PLANT CITY AIRPORT. AFTER WE TOUCHED DOWN, THE NOSE WHEEL OF THE  PLANE WAS SHIMMYING. WEATHER WAS GOOD AND THE WINDS WERE LIGHT STRAIGHT DOWN THE RUNWAY. WE WERE COMING TO TURN OFF THE RUNWAY TO THE TAXIWAY, BEFORE MAKING THE TURN WE TAPPED ON THE BRAKE TO SLOW THE PLANE. WE WERE TAXIING APPROXIMATELY 5-10 MILES PER HOUR WHEN WE TAPPED ON THE BRAKE, WHEN THAT HAPPENED THE NOSE WHEEL FOLDED BACK AND THE NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED. AT THAT POINT WE SHUT OFF EVERYTHING, EXITED, AND WAITED FOR HELP.

Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
