During the execution of a touch-and-go at Peumo Airport (SCPW), the position of the sun left the pilot dazzled, losing his visual references, and the aircraft made contact at the end of the first third and beginning of the second third of runway 28.
As a result, the pilot in command decided to change the plan and make a full stop landing on runway 28, a manoeuvre in which the aircraft overshot the end of the runway, ending up impacting an orange tree. As a result, the pilot in command and passenger were unharmed, the aircraft was damaged.
