NTSB Factual Report

On April 17, 2005, about 1215 eastern daylight time, a Cessna 172N, N1086F, was substantially damaged while landing at Reader-Botsford Airport (67D), Wellington, Ohio. The certificated private pilot and passenger were not injured. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed for the flight that departed Medina Municipal Airport (1G5), Medina, Ohio. No flight plan was filed for the personal flight conducted under 14 CFR Part 91.

The pilot stated that he was landing on runway 18, a 2,850-foot-long, 100-foot wide, turf runway. He attempted to touchdown near a hangar; however, the airplane floated. The airplane then touched down about 400 feet from the end of the runway. The airplane overran the runway, traveled into a wet field, and came to rest inverted.

The pilot reported that at the time of the accident, the wind was varying between southwest and northwest, at 10 knots. The reported wind at an airport located approximately 10 miles north of the accident site, at 1153, was from 340 degrees at 8 knots.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot's failure to obtain the proper touchdown point, and his failure to initiate a go-around, which resulted in an overrun during landing. A factor in the accident was the tail wind.
