Analysis

During landing, the aircraft swerved off the left side of the runway and encountered soft terrain. The nose and left main landing gear were substantially damaged and there was minor damage to the right wing, flap, and aileron. The pilot reported that during the landing, the right main wheel contacted the pavement followed by the left and nose gear, then the plane began swerving to the left. Reportedly, an immediate attempt was made to control the aircraft by applying right brake and nosewheel steering, but there was no response.
