What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
During a high speed taxi, on runway 17 at Grand prairie municipal airport (kgpm), the pilot in command of N3770K, a Globe swift GC-1B, lost control of the aircraft resulting in the aircraft exiting the runway to the left. The aircraft struck an airport visual approach slope indicator (VASI) and then a ditch and came to rest on its nose.
The aircraft sustained damage to its nose, propeller, left wing to fuselage fairing, right wing and the right main landing gear collapsed.
The aircraft was cleared by the control tower for taxi on the runway only and not for takeoff.
