## Narrative

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

N72979 LANDED ON RUNWAY 26 AT KCMA, MADE A QUICK LEFT TURN OFF RUNWAY TO TAXIWAY BRAVO AND AIRCRAFT STARTED A GROUND LOOP. PILOT THEN PUSHED FULL RIGHT RUDDER AND APPLIED RH BRAKE TO STRAIGHTEN AIRCRAFT. AIRCRAFT STRAIGHTENED OUT AND THEN PILOT RELEASED RH BRAKE AND MOMENTUM CARRIED AIRCRAFT OVER ON TO THE NOSE AND CAME TO REST ON THE SPINNER.

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.
