Analysis
The acft overran the rwy and slid on wet grass into a ditch. The rwy was 2432 ft long and the wind was from 180 degrees at 12 KTS gusting to 29 KTS. The plt said that just prior to touchdown the airspeed seemed to increase and the acft floated farther down the rwy than usual. No acft problems or malfunctions were reported. The plt said a go-around was not possible because his airspeed was too low.
