Aircraft Accident/Incident Report
Dover, Arkansas 72837
Saturday, August 18, 2001 18:00 CDT
NTSB Narrative Summary Released at Completion of Accident
According to the 1,621-hour pilot, as the airplane landed on runway 02, which is 2,100 feet in length and grass covered, he "realized that [he] had insufficient room to stop before running out of runway." He aborted the landing and applied full power. The airplane became airborne; however, the main landing gear contacted a 4-foot tall chain link fence past the departure end of the runway. Subsequently, the airplane crossed a road and came to a stop 90 feet from the fence, among pine saplings. The pilot reported that, at the time of the accident, the wind was from the west at 7 knots.
NTSB Probable Cause Narrative
the pilot's delay in aborting the landing.
