## Narrative

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

PILOT WAS LANDING AT THE SULLIVAN LAKE AIRPORT.  A WITNESS REPORTED THAT HIS APPROACH WAS HIGHER AND LONGER THAN NORMAL. HE TOUCHED DOWN LONG AND, ACCORDING TO THE PILOT, ENCOUNTERED A WIND SHEAR THAT CAUSED HIM TO RUN OFF THE NORTH END OF THE RUNWAY ACROSS A ROAD AND FLIPPED OVER ON TO ITS BACK.

## The NTSB's investigation of this event (1)
