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
Plt said he called UNICOM for arpt advisory and heard operator say something about six. He thought she said rwy 6 was the preferred rwy (there is no rwy 6 at Dillon arpt). Operator actually said rwy 16 was the preferred rwy. Plt landed past midway point of rwy 3 (3500 ft, turf) and attempted go-around. Acft hit rwy marker, went through fence and overturned. Arpt density altitude was computed to be 6135 ft. acft flight manual says ground roll of 935 ft and 1550 ft is required for landing and takeoff. Plt was also flying on expired medical certificate.
