What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
Pilot departed kleb at approximately 10:45 EDT. Picked up 30 gallons of fuel. Flight to B10. Approached field using a midfield 45 degree left downwind for runway 02. Turned base and then onto final. Upon rolling out after touchdown the aircraft drifted slightly left of centerline. Pilot applied right rudder to correct. At this point the tail started to come up and the aircraft continued onto its nose and then onto its back in the runway. As previously noted the runway was grass/turf. Condition of the runway was dry. Wx was no factor as well since there was little, if any wind at the time of the incident. Pilot believes that he must have applied more brake authority than needed for the conditions
