What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
The private pilot while landing at a high-altitude airport and operating the aircraft from the right seat lost control during the touch-down phase of the landing. The pilot stated that he had less than ten hours flying from the right seat. The aircrafts stall warning indication activated a few feet from the runway surface. The right main gear hit the runway and the aircraft bounced. The aircraft went off the runway hitting a runway sign. Full power was applied, and a climb out was initiated. The pilot could see that the right main tire assembly was missing and decided to proceed to the Idaho falls airport. An emergency was declared, and the landing was uneventful.
The pilot, passengers, and dog did not sustain injuries. Aircraft records were reviewed and found to have proper certification and current inspection status. Pilot records were reviewed
And found to have the correct certification.
