Incident Overview
A pilot on a business trip to Hickory Ridge, Arkansas, experienced a runway overrun after attempting a go-around at a local crop dusting strip. The pilot had initially landed at Wynne, Arkansas, but was unable to rent a car to continue to Hickory Ridge. According to the fixed-base operator (FBO), there was a 3,200-foot crop dusting strip at Hickory Ridge, prompting the pilot to fly there.
Landing and Go-Around Attempt
The pilot executed a straight-in approach and landed to the northeast. The strip consisted of 2,000 feet of sod followed by 1,200 feet of asphalt. The pilot touched down at the beginning of the asphalt portion and realized that the hard surface was only 1,200 feet long. He then attempted to go around, but the aircraft overran the runway.
Damage and Stopping
After overrunning the runway, the aircraft struck a ditch and a power pole before coming to a stop. No further details about the aircraft type, registration, or occupant injuries were provided in the source.
