After the second touchdown, a 'thump noise' was heard followed by the airplane veering off the right side of the runway. Inspection of the airplane revealed a sideload failure of the landing gear.
Probable Cause: the pilot's failure to maintain directional control of the airplane during the landing, which resulted in an inadvertent ground swerve.
