| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
After making a short field landing, the pilot retracted the flaps to aid in braking. The pilot turned right to exit the runway at midfield. He reported that due to the airplane's speed and a gust of wind, the tires lost traction, the turn radius was too wide to make the turnoff, and the left main gear went into a ditch. He reported that the winds were from 280 degrees at 3 knots gusting to 11 knots. In his written statement, the pilot wrote that a continued rollout to obtain a slower speed after landing would be optimal before initiating a turn off the runway. No further mechanical difficulties were noted with the aircraft or powerplant.
Probable Cause: The pilot's decision to initiate a turn to exit the runway at an excessive rate of speed.
