THE PLANE PULLED TO THE RIGHT. THE PILOT ATTEMPTED TO USE LEFT RUDDER BUT FELT THE PLANE DID NOT RESPOND. THE PILOT INCREASED BRAKING PRESSURE TO PREVENT IT FROM DEPARTING THE RUNWAY, BUT IT DEPARTED THE PAVED RUNWAY SURFACE. AS THE RIGHT WHEEL ENTERED THE GRASS, THE PLANE FLIPPED FORWARDS ONTO ITS BACK. THE VERTICAL STABILIZER WAS CRUSHED AND BENT, CAUSING SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE.
