Analysis
During arrival, the UNICOM had recommended that runway 11 be used. However, the student pilot landed on runway 29 with a quartering tail wind. According to witnesses, the aircraft touched down about, 2800 ft beyond the approach end of the runway, then it slid off the departure end while the student was applying heavy braking action. After departing the runway, it went down an embankment and nosed over.
