THE PILOT REPORTED THAT A NORMAL APPROACH TO THE AIRSTRIP WAS PERFORMED AND TOUCHDOWN WAS NEAR THE APPROACH END. MAXIMUM BRAKING WAS USED TO SLOW THE AIRPLANE; HOWEVER, THE AIRPLANE DID NOT COME TO A STOP BEFORE IT RAN OFF THE AIRSTRIP AND COLLIDED WITH A FENCE. WITNESSES STATED THAT THE AIRPLANE LANDED APPROXIMATELY MID-FIELD AND DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH ROOM TO STOP BEFORE RUNNING OFF THE END OF THE AIRSTRIP.
