Probable cause
The downwind landing with excessive airspeed.
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 he was high on final approach, and landed downwind with excessive airspeed. The airplane bounced, and touched down beyond the proper touchdown point. The pilot attempted to stop the airplane with brakes, with negative results. The airplane went off the departure end of the runway, bogged down in sand, and nosed over.
