Landing
The pilot was approaching the destination airport and was unable to receive weather or airport advisories. The pilot aligned for runway 34, which is 3,977 feet long and 75 feet wide. The airplane landed "slightly past the touch down area" and the pilot gently applied the brakes.
Brake Application and Veering
The airplane was not slowing normally, so the pilot applied more brake pressure. At that time, the airplane veered sharply to the right.
Go-Around Attempt
The pilot attempted to regain control of the airplane and raised the nose to execute a go-around. As the airplane entered a climb, the left landing gear contacted a sign located off the right side of the runway.
Collision and Final Position
The airplane failed to climb and contacted terrain, collapsing the nose landing gear. The airplane continued forward, crashed through the airport fence, and impacted a ditch before coming to rest upright on a street.
Aircraft and Weather
A review of the maintenance logs and airplane failed to identify any pre-impact abnormalities. An automated weather observation facility on the airfield reported winds from 150 degrees at 11 knots.
