Chiloquin State Airport
Aircraft Accident/Incident Report

Chiloquin, Oregon 97624
Friday, June 7, 2013 10:15 PDT

NTSB Narrative Summary Released at Completion of Accident

The pilot reported that, as the airplane neared the destination airport, he maneuvered the airplane on a higher-than-normal approach to avoid tall trees located on the runway’s approach path. The airplane touched down at an excessive ground speed and began to veer left. The pilot attempted to regain directional control with rudder control and brakes, but the airplane continued off the left edge of the runway, impacted a culvert, nosed over, and then came to rest inverted. A postaccident examination of the airplane revealed no evidence of preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures that would have precluded normal operation.

NTSB Probable Cause Narrative

The pilot’s unstabilized approach and use of an excessive speed at touchdown, which resulted in a loss of directional control during the landing and a subsequent runway excursion.
