## Probable cause

FAILURE OF THE PILOT TO ATTAIN THE PROPER TOUCHDOWN POINT AND MAINTAIN DIRECTIONAL CONTROL OF THE AIRCRAFT. A FACTOR RELATED TO THE ACCIDENT WAS: A GO-AROUND WAS NOT PERFORMED BY THE PILOT.

## Sequence of events

In NTSB's coding before 2008 (https://www.ntsb.gov/GILS/Documents/codman.pdf).

- Loss of control - on ground/water, landing - roll
  - go-around - not performed, pilot in command (contributing factor)
  - proper touchdown point - not attained, pilot in command (cause)
  - directional control - not maintained, pilot in command (cause)
- On ground/water encounter with terrain/water, landing - roll
- Nose over, landing - roll

## Analysis

THE PILOT SAID THAT SHE WAS UNCOMFORTABLE WITH HER FIRST APPROACH TO LAND AND EXECUTED A GO-AROUND.  ACCORDING TO WITNESSES, THE SECOND APPROACH RESULTED IN A TOUCH DOWN ABOUT TWO THIRDS DOWN THE RUNWAY.  THE PILOT WAS UNABLE TO STOP ON THE REMAINING LANDING AREA, AND THE AIRCRAFT SWERVED OFF THE RUNWAY AND NOSED OVER.
