NTSB Factual Report

The pilot stated that after landing the tail started to go right of centerline. He applied right rudder with little to no effect. He then applied brakes, but applied them too hard and the tail came off the ground and the airplane nosed over inverted. The pilot reported no mechanical problems with the airplane.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot's improper use of brakes during landing roll resulting in a nose-over.
