NTSB Factual Report

The pilot reported that he made a steep approach and touched down two-thirds the length of the runway beyond the approach end, and faster than expected. Subsequently, he applied full brakes but overran the end of runway. The airplane traversed over a road and briefly became airborne. The airplane touchdown hard and came to rest upright on a field with heavy vegetation.

The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot's improper approach, which resulted in the airplane landing long and a subsequent runway overrun.
