## Narrative

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

ON 03/22/2026, THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNING TO HOME AIRPORT AFTER A TRIP TO FLORIDA. THE AIRCRAFT MADE A FUEL STOP IN GEORGIA AND ALL WAS NORMAL. UPON LANDING AT THE HOME AIRPORT, ON LANDING ROLLOUT, THE RIGHT LANDING GEAR SLOWLY COLLAPSED. THE PILOT STATED HE HEARD A LOUD "POP" AND THAT THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE AIRCRAFT BEGAN TO LOWER. HE INITIALLY THOUGHT HE HAD A FLAT TIRE. THE PILOT TRIED TO HOLD THE RUNWAY CENTER LINE BUT THE AIRCRAFT WENT TO THE RIGHT AND CAME TO A STOP IN THE GRASS OFF TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE RUNWAY. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE AIRCRAFT STRUCK TWO LIGHTS IN THE GRASS TO THE RIGHT OF THE RUNWAY AND MADE IMPRESSIONS IN THE GRASS DUE TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE AIRCRAFT SCRAPING AGAINST THE GROUND. THERE WAS NO POST CRASH FIRE.

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.
