Probable cause

The pilot’s failure to maintain directional control during the landing roll.

NTSB narrative

The pilot reported that immediately after landing, the airplane veered to the left. She attempted to pull back on the yoke and apply the brakes, but the airplane went off the runway, struck a ditch, and flipped over which resulted in substantial damage to the fuselage and vertical stabilizer. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
