## Narrative

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

WITH THREE GREEN GEAR DOWN AND LOCKED INDICATION, THE PILOT LANDED ON RUNWAY 17 AT K3K8.   ON LANDING ROLLOUT, THE PILOT FELT LOSS OF FIRMNESS ON NOSE GEAR STRUT.  THE NOSE GEAR THEN COLLAPSED AND THE AIRPLANE SLID NOSE DOWN ON THE CONCRETE.  IT REMAINED ON THE RUNWAY NEAR THE CENTRLINE.    ALL PERSONS DEPLANED WITHOUT INCIDENT.   NO INJURIES TO ANY OF THE FOUR PERSONS ON BOARD.

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.
