Incident Overview
A pilot reported that during a landing approach, the airplane entered a left downwind leg for runway 31. The windsock appeared 'limp, favoring down the runway from the northwest.'
Landing and Drift
The airplane touched down on the runway centerline approximately 1,000 feet past the threshold. Shortly after touchdown, the airplane began drifting to the right. The pilot applied opposite rudder to correct the drift. In response, the airplane then drifted left, causing the left main wheel to depart the runway edge.
Attempted Correction and Excursion
While attempting to return the airplane to the centerline, the 'left main caught on pavement edge and the airplane came free, veering hard right.' The airplane subsequently exited the right side of the runway about 1,200 to 1,500 feet past the threshold at a 40-degree angle.
Final Position
After leaving the runway, the airplane traveled down an embankment into soft soil and nosed over.
Pilot Report
The pilot provided the account of the events, noting the windsock conditions and the sequence of directional control inputs.
