Accident Overview
A pilot reported that during landing on a 1,250-foot long grass strip, the airplane touched down approximately one-quarter to one-third of the way down the runway. After touchdown, the pilot applied brakes, but the airplane continued past the departure end of the runway.
Environmental Conditions
The pilot stated that the winds were calm at the time of the landing. Dew was present on the grass surface. The airport had two other runways available: Runway 03/21, which was 3,500 feet long and 40 feet wide, surfaced with asphalt; and Runway 09/27, which was 3,250 feet long and 100 feet wide, consisting of turf.
Pilot Statement
The pilot indicated that there was no mechanical malfunction with the airplane. No additional information regarding the aircraft type, registration, or occupants was provided in the source.
Observations
The incident occurred on a grass strip, and the pilot's report noted the early touchdown point relative to the runway length. The presence of dew may have affected braking performance, but the source does not establish a causal relationship.
