Unfortunately, there was a ditch across the end of the overrun which took the main gear forks and tires off. He was able to wheelbarrel the aircraft on its nose gear across the overrun, through the runway lights and onto the runway until the plane lost lift and the aircraft settled on the main gear struts and tail. He lost directional control at that time and the aircraft eventually slid off the right side of the runway a bit. 199L is repaired and up and flying. Four hours of test flying have been put on a new engine and repaired airframe and instruction was done in it last week. There was no structural damage to the fuselage.
