Probable cause
An aborted landing not performed by the pilot. Factors related to the accident were a runway that was wet and ice covered.
Sequence of events
NTSB’s coding before 2008: each occurrence and phase of flight, and the causes and factors under it. The codes are defined in NTSB’s coding manual.
Analysis
The pilot said that during the roll out after landing he was unable to stop on the 2575 foot runway. The sod runway was covered with water and ice. The airplane skidded off the end into a plowed field which resulted in substantial damage.
