## Narrative

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

AIRCRAFT TOUCHED THE MAIN GEAR DOWN NORMALLY.  AS SOON AS THE NOSE WHEEL MADE CONTACT WITH THE RUNWAY, THE AIRCRAFT TURNED SHARPLY TO THE LEFT, AND DEPARTED THE RUNWAY INTO THE GRASS.  THE PROP TIPS AND RIGHT WINGTIP MADE CONTACT WITH THE RUNWAY SURFACE, AS DID THE RIGHT MAIN WHEEL FAIRING.  THE AIRCRAFT IS AWAITING TRANSPORT TO A MAINTENANCE FACILITY.  THIS REPORT WILL BE AMENDED ONCE THE AIRCRAFT HAS BEEN INSPECTED AND THE LANDING GEAR AND STEERING SYSTEMS EXAMINED FOR POSSIBLE MALFUNCTION.

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.
