## Narrative

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

PILOT APPROACHED SGU AND LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT. UPON ROLLOUT, THE AIRCRAFT SWERVED HARD TO THE LEFT. PILOT ATTEMPTED TO CORRECT WITH FULL RUDDER, BUT THE AIRCRAFT WAS UNRESPONSIVE. AFTER EXITING THE AIRCRAFT THE EMERGENCY CREW FROM THE AIRPORT NOTED THAT THE LEFT WHEEL HAD COME OFF OF THE AIRCRAFT. EXAMINATION FOUND THAT THE GEAR BROKE OFF AT THE WELD POINT. NO INJURIES.

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.
