Incident Overview
A pilot reported that during the landing touchdown, a vibration was felt followed by the airplane pulling to the left. Attempting to correct the deviation, the pilot applied right brake, but the airplane continued leftward, departing the left side of the runway. The airplane then traversed over the adjacent gravel area and into brush before coming to rest.
Post-Accident Examination
A Federal Aviation Administration inspector conducted a post-accident examination of the airplane. The examination revealed that the left main landing gear tire was flat. No other anomalies were noted that would have precluded normal flight operations.
Summary
