What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
In the process of landing, the airman landed long, and to avoid going off the end of the runway (steep downhill embankment) turned the aircraft hard to the left, crossing a taxiway, coming to rest in a chain link fence. The resulting damage determined to be substantial, resulting in an accident.
