| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
Prior to landing, the pilot obtained a weather report, which included wind from 190° at 10 knots. The first attempt to land on runway 23 “felt high' and the pilot elected to perform a go-around maneuver. He landed “long' during the subsequent landing and was unable to slow the airplane before it overran the end of the runway. He stated that he was unable to perform a go-around maneuver due to trees at the departure end of the runway. The airplane came to rest against trees, resulting in substantial damage to the left wing and fuselage. The pilot reported no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation. The wind reported at an airport about 6 nm east around the time of the accident was 170° at 7 knots gusting to 16 knots.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to attain a proper touchdown point, which resulted in a runway overrun in gusting wind conditions.
