On February 23, 2016, about 1810 mountain standard time, the right main tire on a Cessna LC41-550FG, N10580, failed on landing at Grand Junction Regional Airport (GJT), Grand Junction, Colorado. The pilot and pilot-rated passenger were not injured. The airplane was substantially damaged. The airplane was registered to and operated by Grand Junction Aircraft Sales, Inc., both of Grand Junction, Colorado, under the provisions of 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 as a test flight. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the time of the accident, and a Visual Flight Rules flight plan had been filed. The local flight originated from GJT about 1745.
The pilot reported that the landing touchdown was smooth, then the airplane suddenly veered to the right. Opposite braking was applied but to no avail. The airplane struck a taxiway sign at A-3 and collided with a ditch. Post-accident examination revealed the right main tire had blown out.
