## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

NARRATIVE: THE AIRCRAFT LANDED ON A SOFT-MEDIUM DIRT STRIP. THE BRAKES LOCKED AS THE AIRCRAFT ROLLED OUT, THE AIRCRAFT THEN FLIPPED OVER AT A VERY SLOW SPEED. AFTER THE AIRCRAFT WAS TURNED UPRIGHT, THERE APPEARED TO BE LITTLE OR NO DAMAGE.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
