What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(.4) The private pilot's initial landing attempt resulted in a go around on the 1,845 foot long runway, with a 278 foot displaced threshold and a greater than 2% downward incline starting at midfield. On his second attempt, the pilot estimated the touchdown point was about 300 feet from the numbers, and the airplane continued to the end of the runway even with constant braking. The federal aviation administration inspector reported that the airplane touched down about midfield, and drifted off the runway during rollout. Braking was attempted with one wheel on the pavement and the other wheel on the grass. The brakes were locked as the airplane went off the runway, down the embankment, and flipped over.
