What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
The pilot was cleared to taxi east on alpha and hold short of runway 18. Because of the taxi speed approaching 18, the controller reminded Mr. Engstrom to hold short of runway 18. The pilot applied enough brake pressure to stop the wheels short of the hold short lines however, the aircraft tipped onto its nose, struck the prop, and came to rest past the hold short line for runway 18. The visibility was > 8SM, and no part of the aircraft was actually touching the runway.
