## Narrative

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

AIRCRAFT WAS ROLLING OUT AFTER TOUCHDOWN, VEERED TO THE LEFT AND EXITED THE RUNWAY. AIRCRAFT CROSSED A DITCH AND IMPACTED THE BERM ADJACENT TO THE RUNWAY. THE NOSE GEAR SEPARATED FROM THE AIRCRAFT. COWLING WAS BENT. NO OTHER DAMAGE INDICATED UPON INVESTIGATION.

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.
