Read the full NTSB narrative

THE PILOT STATED THAT THE AIRPLANE STARTED TO WEATHERVANE WHILE TURNING OFF THE RUNWAY ONTO THE TAXIWAY. NOSEWHEEL STEERING WAS INITIATED WITH NEGATIVE RESULTS. FULL POWER WAS APPLIED ON THE THRUST REVERSERS; THE AIRPLANE DEPARTED THE TAXIWAY AND CAME TO A STOP IN THE GRASS. THE PILOT THEN TAXIED FORWARD, AND THE NOSEWHEEL COLLIDED WITH A CEMENT PAD COLLAPSING THE NOSE GEAR. EXAMINATION REVEALED THAT THE LEFT HAND MAIN GEAR ASSEMBLY TRAILING LINK CONNECTORS PW21 AND PW 23 ANTI-SKID TRANSDUCERS WERE CROSSED, AND RESPONDED OPPOSITE OF HOW THEY SHOULD HAVE OPERATED.
