## Narrative

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

ON GROUND ROLL OUT AFTER LANDING ON 29L, MY PLANE VEERED LEFT. I ATTEMPTED TO CORRECT WITH RUDDER AND BRAKE. I VEERED LEFT OFF THE RUNWAY. WHEN MY RIGHT WHEEL ENTERED THE SOFT EARTH, IT IMMEDIATELY STOPPED AND BUCKLED.

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.
