General Maintenance Action
Human Factors
[After landing;] all 3 wheels were on the ground and the aircraft was moving left towards the grass. Tried to correct with right rudder and it was not enough to stop the movement to the left. Applied brakes to slow/stop the aircraft. The tail raised; and the nose lowered. Aircraft came to a stop with the aircraft tail high in the air. I turned off the ignition and master switch; exited the aircrafts. Called 911 and local emergency personnel responded. Supervisory staff notified. FAA was contacted; and incident discussed over telephone. After discussion the FAA 'released' the aircraft to be moved from the runway to a storage hangar on the airport. Maintenance Supervisor came to the site and supervised the operation to lower the aircraft's tail back on the ground using local personnel and equipment
