Event Location
Probable Cause
The pilot's failure to maintain directional control during the landing rollout in gusting wind conditions.
Full Narrative
The pilot reported that after the airplane touched down, it veered to the left and departed the runway onto a grassy area. He applied power in an effort to return to the runway; however, the airplane went into a ditch and nosed over, which resulted in substantial damage to the tail section. He stated that gusty wind conditions may have been a factor. The pilot reported no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
