The airplane landed long and bounced. The pilot realized he was unable to stop the airplane and attempted a go-around; however, the airplane was unable to gain enough airspeed to become airborne. The airplane struck a ditch and road sign which resulted in substantial damage to the left wing and fuselage. The pilot reported that the airplane had no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures that would have precluded normal operation. ## Aircraft - Registration: [N37TJ](https://openairdocs.org/aircraft/N37TJ), registered now, S/N 18264795, built 1976 (OpenAirDocs) - Reported make and model: CESSNA 182 (P) - Registry model: [Cessna 182P](https://openairdocs.org/model/cessna-182p) (registry code 2075816) (OpenAirDocs) - Category: Airplane - Serial number: 18264795 - Year built: 1976 - Airframe hours: 5870.09 - Engines: Teledyne Continetal O-470-S 230 horsepower reciprocating - Damage: Substantial damage - Flight: Personal, Part 91 - Registered owner: Hodl Partners LLC - Airworthiness certificate: Standard, Normal - Last inspection: Annual, October 20, 2023, 53.51 hours before - Departed: KTKI, McKinney, TX - Destination: Same as departure - Airport: Pvt, Smokin' Joes Rib Ranch, runway 31, 1,950 × 150 ft, grass/turf - Equipment: Handheld GPS, Electronic multifunction display, Stall warning system, ADS-B, Auto-pilot ## Flight crew As NTSB recorded them.
