Factual narrative
THE ACFT WENT OFF THE RWY AND NOSED OVER IN THE ROUGH SAND. THE PLT SAID THAT SHE LOOKED INTO THE COCKPIT TO LOCATE THE FLAP SWITCH TO RAISE THE FLAPS FOR A RUNNING TAKEOFF. POWER HAD ALREADY BEEN ADDED AND THE ACFT STARTED TO THE LEFT BY THE TIME THE PLT LOOKED UP AGAIN. CORRECTIVE ACTION ATTEMPTED WAS NOT EFFECTIVE AND THE USE OF POWER TO GO OVER A DITCH AND UP A SANDY MOUND ENDED IN A NOSE OVER AT THE BASE OF THE ELEVATION.
