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 stated that two attempts to land at turkey airstrip resulted in difficulty in achieving a proper final approach path. After some maneuvering on the 2nd approach the acft landed. One witness described the landing as hot with some floating and a late touchdown. In spite of the pilot's braking attempts the acft ran off the end of the rwy up a berm and into a ditch.
