What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) After landing and while rolling out the left wing of the aircraft came in contact with brush over growing the runway. The contact with the brush caused the pilot to lose directional control of the aircraft resulting in the aircraft leaving the left side of the runway. The aircraft came to rest perpendicular to the runway after contacting some larger brush and trees. The aircraft sustained minor damage to the leading edge of both wings, left wing tip minor damage and a collapse of the nose landing gear. The wingspan of this particular PA-28-181 is listed as 35 feet. The width of the runway is listed as 30 feet. The private airport had not been kept up allowing brush to grow up to and over the edge of the runway. The pilot reported no mechanical failure(s) and simply stated that he misjudged the distance from the wingtip to the overhanging brush.
As the FAA filed it
(-23) AFTER LANDING AND WHILE ROLLING OUT THE LEFT WING OF THE AIRCRAFT CAME IN CONTACT WITH BRUSH OVER GROWING THE RUNWAY. THE CONTACT WITH THE BRUSH CAUSED THE PILOT TO LOSE DIRECTIONAL CONTROL OF THE AIRCRAFT RESULTING IN THE AIRCRAFT LEAVING THE LEFT SIDE OF THE RUNWAY. THE AIRCRAFT CAME TO REST PERPENDICULAR TO THE RUNWAY AFTER CONTACTING SOME LARGER BRUSH AND TREES. THE AIRCRAFT SUSTAINED MINOR DAMAGE TO THE LEADING EDGE OF BOTH WINGS, LEFT WING TIP MINOR DAMAGE AND A COLLAPSE OF THE NOSE LANDING GEAR. THE WINGSPAN OF THIS PARTICULAR PA-28-181 IS LISTED AS 35 FEET. THE WIDTH OF THE RUNWAY IS LISTED AS 30 FEET. THE PRIVATE AIRPORT HAD NOT BEEN KEPT UP ALLOWING BRUSH TO GROW UP TO AND OVER THE EDGE OF THE RUNWAY. THE PILOT REPORTED NO MECHANICAL FAILURE(S) AND SIMPLY STATED THAT HE MISJUDGED THE DISTANCE FROM THE WINGTIP TO THE OVERHANGING BRUSH.
