## Narrative

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

PILOT FELT VIBRATION ON LANDING FROM THE LANDING GEAR. PILOT PERFORMED TAXI TEST TO SEE IF HE COULD DETERMINE WHAT WAS CAUSING THE VIBRATION. WHEN THE PILOT RETURNED TO THE RAMP THE RIGHT SIDE MAIN LANDING GEAR WAS ON FIRE.

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.
