Aircraft involved
Probable cause & findings
The pilot’s failure to attain a proper touchdown point during landing which resulted in a runway excursion and subsequent nose over.
Factual narrative
The pilot of the airplane reported that while on approach to land on a dirt runway, the airplane was “a little higher than normal.” The airplane landed a couple of hundred feet from the departure end of the runway. During the landing roll, he maneuvered the airplane to avoid a mudhole on the runway. As the pilot realigned the airplane back to runway centerline, he noted that the airplane was traveling too fast as it approached the departure end of the runway. The airplane departed the end of the runway, impacted the departure end runway’s rock boundary markers, and came to rest inverted. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
