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 acft went off the runway in strong gusty winds and nosed down in mud. The pilot stated that he bounced on landing and came down about 35 degrees to the centerline. He judged it too risky to try to realign so he continued to land off the runway. The acft wheels sank into the mud and the acft nosed down.
