NTSB narrative
During the off-airport landing roll to an area of mowed grass, the airplane impacted a berm and nosed over, coming to rest inverted. The top of the rudder was crushed and a wing strut on the left side was bent. The pilot stated that there were no mechanical anomalies with the airplane prior to the accident.
Probable cause
The pilot's encounter with a berm during the landing roll, resulting in the airplane nosing over.

- Unreviewed is an editorial label, not an investigation status. API-sourced is not report-checked or human-reviewed. Explicit event totals are used without summing aircraft injury tables; onboard allocation is withheld. Unknown values remain unknown. The operation category is mapped from the NTSB-reported FAR part and has not been reviewed.
- Filled from the NTSB case API where the bulk record had no value: investigation status. Values present in the bulk record are kept.
- The date is the local date, which is the same as the UTC date the NTSB stores.
