| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot reported the airplane veered 'uncontrollably' to the right during the landing roll. The left wing contacted the ground and the airplane continued the turn until coming to rest on its nose 180 degrees opposite the direction of landing. Post accident inspection of the airplane revealed the crankcase breather tube was routed down the right main landing gear strut allowing oil residue to contaminate the brake system.
Probable Cause: a locked right brake which resulted in the pilot's inability to maintain direction control of the airplane during the landing roll.
