The private pilot was completing a personal cross-country flight. After flying a visual pattern, the pilot conducted a night landing to the 5,003-ft-long asphalt runway. During the landing roll, the airplane began to shake and veered left. The pilot applied right rudder but was unable to stop the left turn, and the airplane departed the runway surface.
Examination of the airframe, nose strut assembly, and tires revealed no evidence of malfunctions or failures that would have precluded normal operation. The pilot reported that he had noticed the airplane shaking on previous landings and that he should have applied more back-elevator control during the landing roll. The pilot's insufficient use of elevator control likely caused the airplane to wheelbarrow and led to the loss of directional control.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain directional control during the landing roll.
