## Narrative

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

THE AIRCRAFT ENTERED THE DOWNWIND LEG FOR KBXM. THE PILOT TURNED SHORT FINAL AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH AND EXECUTED A NORMAL TOUCHDOWN AND INITIAL ROLLOUT. DURING THE ROLLOUT AT APPROXIMATELY 10:35 AM, THE PILOT NOTED A SENSATION CONSISTENT WITH A FLAT RIGHT MAIN TIRE AND APPLIED LEFT RUDDER TO MAINTAIN DIRECTIONAL CONTROL. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, THE RIGHT LANDING GEAR COMPLETELY COLLAPSED, CAUSING THE AIRCRAFT TO VEER SHARPLY TO THE RIGHT AND RESULTING IN A PROPELLER STRIKE.

FOLLOWING THE AIRCRAFT COMING TO A STOP, THE PILOT PERFORMED EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURES AND CONDUCTED A VISUAL ASSESSMENT FROM INSIDE THE CABIN, NOTING NO EVIDENT FUEL LEAKS.

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.
