Read the full NTSB narrative
During the landing roll, the airplane veered to the right side of the runway and application of the left rudder and brake by both occupants did not change the ground track. The airplane departed the runway and groundlooped. The FAA inspector, who examined the airplane, reported a separation of a left main landing gear bolt. The reason for the bolt separation was not determined.
