## Narrative

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

THE AIRCAFT WAS OPERATING AS A 14 C.F.R PART 91 REPOSITIONING FLIGHT HAVING DEPARTED FROM KRVS AIRPORT.  DURING LANDING ON RUNWAY 21L AT THE CINCINNATI MUNICIPAL/LUNKEN (KLUK) AIRPORT, THE AIRCRAFT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE OF THE RIGHT MAIN LANDING GEAR LEVER HINGE FITTING DURING ROLLOUT.

AS A RESULT OF THE FAILURE, THE AIRCRAFT’S RIGHT WINGTIP WAS DRAGGED ALONG THE RUNWAY SURFACE WHICH CAUSED THE RIGHT AILERON TO SUSTAIN SIGNIFICANT GRINDING DAMAGE.  THE AIRCRAFT’S RIGHT PROPELLER ALSO RECEIVED DAMAGE TO ALL 5 BLADES FROM CONTACT WITH THE GROUND CAUSING THE BLASDE TIPS TO BE GROUND DOWN AND/OR SEPARATE.

## NTSB investigation

None matched to this report by aircraft and date. Search the NTSB's own records: https://data.ntsb.gov/carol-main-public/basic-search

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.
