## Narrative

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

PILOT WAS ATTEMPTING TO LAND ON RWY 31 WHEN HE LOST DIRECTIONAL CONTROL OF THE AIRCRAFT AFTER A HARD LANDING. THE AIRCRAFT VEERED HARD TO THE LEFT TOWARDS A DITCH.  THE PILOT THEN APPLIED FULL POWER TO GO-AROUND BUT COULD NOT GET AIRBORNE.  THE MAIN LANDING GEAR CONTACTED THE GROUND AND FLIPPED THE AIRCRAFT OVER.  PREVAILING WINDS WERE FROM THE NORTH EAST AND GUSTING TO 17 KNOTS.  WINDS WERE A CONTRIBUTING FACTOR.  THE PILOT WAS THE SOLE OCCUPANT AND WAS NOT INJURED.

## NTSB investigation

None matched to this report by aircraft and date. Search the NTSB's own records: https://data.ntsb.gov/carol-main-public/basic-search

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.
