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 main rwy at the arpt was closed due to resurfacing. The plt was attempting a landing on rwy 31 knowing it would be a deliberate downwind landing. According to the operator of the arpt, plts were discouraged from using rwy 13 because the traffic directly interfers with traffic at a nearby arpt. The plt landed long & executed a go-around, but was unableto clear trees.
