## Narrative

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

WHILE TAKING OFF ON RUNWAY 36 AT MYRTLE BEACH, SC, THE MAIN CABIN ENTRY DOOR LIGHT CAME ON.  THE PILOT INITIATED AN ABORTED LANDING. WHILE BRAKING ON THE RUNWAY, THE AIRPLANE WENT OFF THE RUNWAY AND INTO THE OVERRUN.  THE AIRPLANE CONTACTED THE RUNWAY LIGHTS CAUSING MINOR DAMAGE TO THE AIRPLANE.  THE AIRMAN WAS A US LICENSE PILOT BASED ON FOREIGN LICENSE FLYING A US REGISTERED AIRPLANE.  THE US CERTIFICATE DID NOT HAVE AMEL CLASS AND THE US AIRPLANE FLOWN WAS A AMEL.  INVESTIGATION WILL BE INTIATED.

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.
