According to the pilot, he requested a long landing in order to exit the runway on a taxiway near the end. The pilot stated that the approach was standard and touchdown was nominal. He further stated that he "applied modest but symmetrical brakes simultaneously with nose wheel contact," and the airplane "immediately" began "a strong, uncontrolled diversion to the right." While skidding sideways, the airplane contacted a taxiway sign, nosed down and then settled upright. The pilot stated that the accident could have been prevented with "perhaps less aggressive braking immediately after touchdown, while still achieving lift."
Probable Cause: The pilot's excessive braking which resulted in a loss of aircraft control during the landing roll. A taxiway sign was a factor.
