Narrative:The pilot encountered a tailwind during landing; the airplane overran the runway and collided with a fence. While on the final approach segment of the pilot's landing pattern, he closed the throttle. The airplane touched down about 2,000 feet down the 4,125-foot runway with a higher than normal airspeed. The pilot retracted the flaps and began to apply the brakes. The airplane skidded down the runway until impacting a fence. The pilot noted no mechanical malfunctions with the airplane prior to the accident. A preceding airplane in the pattern had advised the control tower of encountering a 10-knot tailwind. The pilot said he heard this broadcast.
Probable Cause: the pilot misjudged the airplane's distance/speed which resulted in an overrun. A contributing factor was the tailwind.
