Probable cause

The pilot’s unstabilized approach and subsequent failure to attain the proper touchdown point, which resulted in a runway overrun.

— NTSB Determination

Accident narrative

The pilot stated that during landing, he was too fast on the approach, and touched down long. Subsequently the airplane overran the runway and nosed over.

A postaccident examination revealed substantial damage to fuselage.

The pilot reported no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.

After multiple requests, the pilot did not return the NTSB Form 6120.1 Pilot/Operator Aircraft Accident/Incident Report.
