## Narrative

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

PILOT STATED: "PRACTICING LANDINGS ON RUNWAY 10, IN ORDER TO GAIN EXPERIENCE IN M/M/S.  IT WAS BUMPY.  UPON LANDING ON RUNWAY 10, AIRCRAFT DEPARTED THE RUNWAY INTO THE GRASS.  WHEN THE MAIN WHEELS HIT THE SOFT GROUND, THE AIRCRAFT NOSED OVER. "  PILOT WAS ONLY OCCUPANT.

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.
