What happened
During the rollout phase of landing, the left main wheel of the aircraft rolled off the paved surface and into adjacent mud. This lateral deviation pulled the aircraft off the runway and down an embankment until it entered a ditch. As the nose gear sank deeper into the soft ground, the aircraft nosed over. The final resting position was on its nose and right wing.
