## Narrative

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

AT APPROXIMATELY 14:40 LOCAL TIME ON MAY 28, 2026, A ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^ WAS INVOLVED IN A LANDING INCIDENT AT HOUSTON EXECUTIVE AIRPORT (TME). THE AIRCRAFT WAS CONDUCTING A ROUTINE 14 CFR PART 61 TRAINING FLIGHT WITH A CERTIFIED FLIGHT INSTRUCTOR AND STUDENT ABOARD.

DURING THE LANDING SEQUENCE, THE RIGHT MAIN LANDING GEAR LOWER STRUT AND WHEEL ASSEMBLY SEPARATED FROM THE AIRCRAFT UPON TOUCHDOWN DUE TO UNKNOWN REASONS. THE SEPARATION OF THE GEAR CAUSED THE AIRCRAFT TO DEPART THE RUNWAY ENVIRONMENT AND ENTER THE GRASS.

MINOR DAMAGE WAS SUSTAINED BY THE RIGHT LANDING GEAR, WING AND FLAP. BOTH OCCUPANTS EGRESSED SAFELY; THERE WERE 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.
