THE PLT TOOK OFF FROM THE DEPARTURE POINT AFTER AN UNEXPECTED 1/2 HR DELAY. BY THE TIME HE ARRIVED AT HIS DESTINATION, IT WAS DARK. NO RWY LIGHTING SYS WAS INSTALLED, SO SOMEONE AT THE ARPT DROVE A CAR TO RWY 27 TO LIGHT UP THE APPROACH END WITH THE HEAD LIGHTS. DURING THE ARRIVAL, THE PLT LANDED LONG & WAS UNABLE TO STOP ON THE REMAINING RWY. THE ACFT WENT OFF THE DEPARTURE END OF THE RWY, WENT OFF A 4 TO 5 FT EMBANKMENT & NOSED OVER.
