14 CFR Part 91: General Aviation
Accident occurred Thursday, February 11, 2016 in Hudson Oaks, TX
Probable Cause Approval Date: 05/03/2016
Aircraft: CESSNA 182, registration: N182SD
Injuries: 1 Minor.
NTSB investigators used data provided by various entities, including, but not limited to, the Federal Aviation Administration and/or the operator and did not travel in support of this investigation to prepare this aircraft accident report.
According to the pilot, during approach, his altitude was too high on final. He reported that he decided to land and that the landing flare lasted longer than he expected. The airplane touched down beyond mid-field and bounced twice. The pilot reported that as he approached the end of the runway, he attempted a right turn in order to turn off of the runway and on to the taxiway; however his speed was too fast to complete the turn. The airplane exited the runway turn off and traveled down an embankment where it nosed over just short of the highway. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the both wings, fuselage, the rudder and vertical stabilizer.
The pilot reported that there were no mechanical failures or anomalies with the airplane prior to or during the flight that would have prevented normal flight operation.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident as follows:
The pilot's decision to continue the high approach, resulting in excessive speed during the landing roll, a loss of directional control, runway excursion, and nose over.
