What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
The pilot filed an IFR flight plan from paine field, WA (kpae) to Chelan, WA (S10). ATC cleared the pilot direct to Chelan, VFR on top (approx. 9500 ft.). The pilot canceled IFR upon reaching Chelan and commenced an approach to runway 2.
The pilot went around on the first attempt due to being high and fast. During the second attempt, the pilot noted he was too steep and fast and landed 1/3 ? 1/2 way down the runway. The pilot thought the grass at the runway end was clear and smooth and elected to remain on the ground rather than perform another go-around.
During the rollout, the aircraft traveled through the grass area, crossed a road, and entered a field where the left wing hit an unknown object. The aircraft spun 180 degrees before coming to rest in the field. There were no injuries.
The outboard 1/3 section of the left wing was substantially damaged.
The pilot stated he was distracted by the terrain warning alerts during his approaches. The weather was VMC.
