| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot reported that during the landing rollout on a remote sandbar, the airplane's main tires encountered an area of soft sand and the airplane nosed over, which resulted in substantial damage to the wings, vertical stabilizer, and rudder. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or anomalies with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation, and that the accident may have been prevented if he had applied less brakes and been more prepared for the soft and uneven landing surface.
Probable Cause: The pilot's selection of unsuitable terrain for landing which resulted in a nose over.
