What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
On April 10th, at 1330, a Cessna 150 aircraft aborted take-off, and came to rest approximately 500 feet after the end of the runway, at the tishomingo airport. Tire marks were evident from the end of the runway, to where the aircraft came to rest. The first evidence of abnormal contact was a propeller marking in the soil, immediately followed by a heavy propeller mark, followed by ground mark evidence of nose gear collapse. Examination of the aircraft revealed that all flight control continuity was intact, but with limited rudder travel due to the nose landing gear interfering with rudder pedal cross shaft. Fuel was present in both fuel tanks, with no evidence of water contamination.
The airport is closely surrounded by tall trees contained within a wild life refuge.
