## Narrative

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

THE AIRCRAFT WAS LANDING ON RUNWAY 14 AT BRANSON AIRPORT WHEN AFTER TOUCHDOWN, THE AIRCRAFT SWERVED OFF TO ONE SIDE OF THE RUNWAY IMPACTING A WING ON THE RUNWAY DUE TO THE HARD TURN. THE AIRCRAFT THEN SWERVED THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION AND AS THE NOSE GEAR CROSSED FROM THE GRASS ONTO THE RUNWAY PAVEMENT, THE NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED. THE AIRCRAFT THEN SKIDDED STRAIGHT ACROSS THE RUNWAY CENTERLINE COMING TO A STOP ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE RUNWAY.

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.
