## Narrative

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

(-23)THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED DURING LANDING. THE AIRCRAFT DEPARTED NORTHWEST REGIONAL AIRPORT (52F) ROANOKE, TEXAS.  THE PILOT STATED THAT HE CHOSE TO LAND ON THE GRASS RUNWAY AT LAKEVIEW AIRPORT (30F) LAKE DALLAS, TEXAS, BUT DID NOT REALIZE THAT THE GRASS WAS APPROXIMATELY 2 FEET IN HEIGHT.  THE LANDING GEAR AND AXLE BECAME ENTANGLED WITH THE TALL GRASS.  THIS CAUSED THE AIRCRATF TOE NOSE OVER.

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.
