(-23) AIRCRAFT FLIPPED OVER ON ROLL OUT AFTER LANDING AT A PRIVATE RANCH STRIP. THE MID POINT OF THIS GRASS LANDING STRIP HAD BECOME WET AND SOFT CAUSED BY AN IRRIGATION PROJECT NEARBY. THE PILOT AND OWNER OF THE STRIP WAS NOT AWARE THAT HIS RANCH HANDS HAD IRRIGATED THE FIELDS NEARBY AND THAT EXCESS WATER HAD FLOWED ONTO THE MID PORTION OF THE STRIP.
