What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
The aircraft touched down approximately 400 feet beyond the approach end of a 2,500 foot grass runway at 80 knots and travelled approximately 800 feet before slowing to 40 knots. The aircraft became airborne again at approximately the 1400 foot mark and contacted the ground at the 1500 foot mark. Pilot then applied brakes and pulled the yoke back. Aircraft skidded on the wet grass but did not respond to nose wheel steering input and impacted a culvert at the end of the runway. Impact caused the front landing gear to shear off the aircraft causing significant damage.
