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

(-23) THE PILOT ^PRIVACY DATA O^ DEPARTED RUNWAY 27 AT MEDINA MUNICIPAL AIRPORT WITH ONE PASSENGER ENROUTE TO READER-BOTSFORD AIRPORT (67D) IN WELLINGTON, OH. THE PILOT HAD FLOWN INTO THE AIRPORT SEVERAL TIMES IN A GLIDER, BUT THIS WAS HIS FIRST INTO 67D IN AN AIRPLANE. ACCORDING TO THE PILOT, RUNWAY 18 WAS IN USE AT 67D BY A GLIDER THAT HAD TAKEN OFF PRIOR TO HIS ARRIVAL. THE PILOT ^PRIVACY DAT^ SAID THAT HE INTENDED TO LAND ABOUT HALFWAY DOWN THE RUNWAY TO AVOID THE HANGAR. THE RUNWAY AT 67D IS 2850'X100' TURF WITH TREES AT EACH END. THE PILOT ^PRIVACY DAT^ SAID THAT HE CAME IN "HIGH AND FAST" AND FLOATED PAST HIS PLANNED TOUCHDOWN POINT. THE OHIO HIGHWAY PATROL MEASURED THE TOUCHDOWN POINT TO BE APPROXIMATELY 300' FROM THE END OF THE RUNWAY. THE AIRPLANE CONTINUED OFF THE RUNWAY INTO A FIELD WHERE THE NOSE GEAR SHEARED OFF AND THE AIRPLANE FLIPPED OVER RESULTING IN SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE.
