## Narrative

(-23) PILOT OF N49KB APPROACHED CARTHAGE AIRPORT (PRIVATE STRIP) DURING CROSSWIND CONDITIONS. AS THE PILOT LANDED, HE APPLIED FULL BRAKES. THE AIRCRAFT THEN VEERED OFF OF THE RUNWAY TO THE LEFT AND CONTINUED TO TRAVEL FOR APPROXIMATELY 100 FEET BEFORE SLIDING DOWN AN EMBANKMENT AND COMING TO REST IN SMALL TREES AND BRUSH. THE FAA LEARNED OF THE ACCIDENT MORE THAN 3 MONTHS AFTER THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED.
