## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

DURING THE TAKEOFF ROLL, AT ROTATION AN EXCESSIVE BACK PRESSURE WAS APPLIED TO THE ELEVATOR CAUSEING THE AIRCRAFT TO OVER ROTATE.  THE OVER ROTATION CAUSED THE AIRCRAFT TO DRIFT LEFT AND THE AIRPLANE EXITED THE RUNWAY CAUSING THE  NOSE GEAR OF THE AIRCRAFT TO COLLAPS AND DAMAGING THE PROPELLER.  THE AIRCRAFT EXPERIENCED MINOR DAMAGE

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
