## Narrative

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

ON JANUARY 18, 2024, THE AIRCRAFT TAXIED OUT FROM THE RAMP NEAR THE HANGAR AT APPROXIMATELY 1800 LOCAL TIME AND A TAXI CHECKLIST WAS PERFORMED WITH NO INCIDENT. AT, 1808 LOCAL, AIRCRAFT WAS CLEARED FOR TAKEOFF.  AS THE AIRCRAFT LINED UP ON RUNWAY 33 WITH A LEFT TURN ON TO THE RUNWAY, THE NOSEWHEEL HIT A PATCH OF SLUSHY ICE THEN HIT DRY PAVEMENT AS THE NOSEWHEEL STEERING WAS BEING PLACED BACK IN THE CENTER POSITION.   AS THAT OCCURRED, THE OVERSTEERING PIN ON THE NOSE GEAR POPPED DISABLING THE NOSEWHEEL STEERING.  WITH COORDINATION WITH THE TOWER, AIRPORT OPERATIONS, AND THE MAINTENANCE TEAM, IT WAS ARRANGED FOR THE MAINTENANCE TEAM TO TOW THE AIRCRAFT OFF THE RUNWAY.  AN INSPECTION OF THE RUNWAY AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS ACCOMPLISHED, AND NO APPARENT DAMAGE WAS FOUND.

AFTER THE AIRCRAFT WAS TOWED BACK TO THE HANGAR, AN INSPECTION OF THE NOSE GEAR WAS ACCOMPLISHED BY OUR MAINTENANCE TEAM PER THE GULFSTREAM INSPECTION PROCEDURE AND NO DAMAGE WAS FOUND.  THE NOSE GEAR WAS RE-RIGGED AND RETURN TO SERVICE.

THE ATIS AT THE TIME OF ORIGINAL TAKEOFF CLEARANCE WAS: CLEAR BELOW 12,000, 6SM, CALM WINDS, AND WITH NO NOTAMS OF ANY CONTAMINATION ON THE RUNWAY.

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.
