| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
On landing rollout the airplane veered to the left side of the runway. The pilot reported that the airplane departed the runway surface, the tires sunk into soft turf on the side of the runway, and the airplane nosed over coming to rest in an inverted position. Inspection of the runway surface revealed a single tire skid mark that initiated approximately 240 feet from the runway threshold, 10 feet left of the runway centerline, and followed a left curved path terminating approximately 465 feet from the runway threshold, 20 feet left of the runway edge. The tire skid mark was approximated 225 feet long. Inspection of the wreckage revealed no mechanical anomalies with the aircraft's control and the brake systems. Both main landing gear wheels were free moving and the brake system was exercised and operated without any anomalous behavior.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain directional control during the landing roll. A factor to the accident was the soft terrain condition.
