What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
On August 21, 2019, about 1132 pacific daylight time, a Cessna 560XL airplane, N91GY, overran the departure end of runway 2 following a rejected takeoff from Oroville Municipal Airport (ove), Oroville, California. The two airline-transport pilots and 8 passengers were not injured. The airplane was destroyed by a post-crash grass fire that consumed a majority of the airplane. The airplane was registered to jotts LLC, and was operated by delta private jets, under the provisions of title 14 code of federal regulations part 135 as an on-demand charter flight. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed, and an instrument flight rules flight plan was filed. The flight was originating at the time of the accident and was destined for portland international airport (pdx), portland, Oregon.
Following completion of the before takeoff checklist, the pilots initiated takeoff, and the non-flying pilot called airspeed alive, V1, and vr. The pilot stated that ?it was just a weird sensation? As he pulled the yoke back and the airplane didn?t lift off. The pilot stated he pulled the yoke back a second time and noticed no movement of the nose. Shortly after, the non-flying pilot called for an abort, and the flying pilot applied full thrust reversers and maximum braking. Subsequently, the airplane exited the departure end of the runway, impacted a ditch, and skidded across a grass covered area, where a post impact fire ensued.
Examination of the accident site revealed that the airplane came to rest about 1,990 ft beyond the departure end of runway 2, on a heading of about 060° magnetic.
Examination of the runway revealed tire transfer marks which originated from the runway 2 hold short line and progressed onto the runway, and continued throughout the entire length of the runway, overrun, adjacent runway, grassy area, taxiway, and grassy area near the main wreckage.
FDR analysis indicates the aircraft did not accelerate properly.

EXAMINATION OF THE RUNWAY REVEALED TIRE TRANSFER MARKS WHICH ORIGINATED FROM THE RUNWAY 2 HOLD SHORT LINE AND PROGRESSED ONTO THE RUNWAY, AND CONTINUED THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE LENGTH OF THE RUNWAY, OVERRUN, ADJACENT RUNWAY, GRASSY AREA, TAXIWAY, AND GRASSY AREA NEAR THE MAIN WRECKAGE.
