A Jabiru J430 aircraft with registration ZU-EOE took off on a private flight from Rhino Park Airfield to Kitty Hawk Aerodrome.
The take-off and the flight from Rhino Park to FAKT, situated 4.8 nautical miles (nm) south-west of the airfield, were uneventful. The unmanned circuit joining procedure was completed and the pilot positioned the aircraft for right downwind on Runway (RWY) 01. After completing the base leg checks, the pilot turned the aircraft and established the final approach for landing on RWY 01. The aircraft landed deep (more than 1/3) with 30 degrees flap setting. The aircraft overran the runway.
The aircraft exited the runway and rolled into a ditch beyond the threshold of RWY 01 before it stopped in a nose-down attitude beyond the end of the runway. The two occupants were not injured. During the accident sequence, the aircraft
sustained substantial structural damage to the nose, left main gear and propeller.
Probable Cause(s)
The aircraft landed deep to avoid powerlines and failed to stop, thus, overran the runway and rolled into a ditch.
