Analysis

While landing on a private sod strip to reload, the aircraft began pulling to the right. The pilot stated that all efforts to counteract with left brake, rudder, and power had no effect. Subsequently, the right wing struck a fence and the plane flipped over on its back. An inspection revealed that the right main tire was flat.
