Narrative:
I was the PIC on jan/xx/97 that ended with a runway overrun at destination (pvc). Aircraft was a C402C. Prior to the departure of flight I checked WX at pvc via telephone to pvc AWOS, and received the following report: 220 degrees, 12 KTS, 3 1/2 SM, broken 003 07/06 altimeter 29.67. I consulted the aircraft performance charts and determined that the flight could be operated safely and within aircraft limitations. I again checked WX at pvc prior to commencing the ILS runway 7 at pvc. I received the following report: 220 degrees, 11 KTS, 3 SM, overcast 003 07/07 altimeter 29.67. WX was above the landing minimum visibility of 3/4 SM and within aircraft limitations. I continued the approach and acquired the runway at approximately 250 ft AGL and made a normal touchdown. After touchdown and subsequent application of brakes, I experienced a strong, sudden gust of wind (right quartering tailwind gust). The gust pushed the aircraft down the runway and precluded a go around. Braking effectiveness was deteriorated by hydroplaning. I employed maximum braking technique to bring the aircraft to a stop. The aircraft overran the runway into soft sand. Upon entering the sand, the right main gear collapsed and the aircraft came to a stop. No one was injured. The 4 passenger were deplaned through the main cabin door and escorted into the terminal. AWOS reports show that significant wind gusts began to occur at the same time we were rolling out from touchdown. The gusting wind was not reported to me by AWOS prior to the approach and was the cause of the overrun.

Title: C402 LANDED OK IN LOW CEILINGS. ON ROLLOUT, HAD STRONG TAILWIND RESULTING IN HYDROPLANING AND NO BRAKING. OFF END OF RWY 7 INTO SAND CAUSING THE R GEAR TO COLLAPSE. NO INJURIES TO PAX.
Narrative: I WAS THE PIC ON JAN/XX/97 THAT ENDED WITH A RWY OVERRUN AT DEST (PVC). ACFT WAS A C402C. PRIOR TO THE DEP OF FLT I CHKED WX AT PVC VIA TELEPHONE TO PVC AWOS, AND RECEIVED THE FOLLOWING RPT: 220 DEGS, 12 KTS, 3 1/2 SM, BROKEN 003 07/06 ALTIMETER 29.67. I CONSULTED THE ACFT PERFORMANCE CHARTS AND DETERMINED THAT THE FLT COULD BE OPERATED SAFELY AND WITHIN ACFT LIMITATIONS. I AGAIN CHKED WX AT PVC PRIOR TO COMMENCING THE ILS RWY 7 AT PVC. I RECEIVED THE FOLLOWING RPT: 220 DEGS, 11 KTS, 3 SM, OVCST 003 07/07 ALTIMETER 29.67. WX WAS ABOVE THE LNDG MINIMUM VISIBILITY OF 3/4 SM AND WITHIN ACFT LIMITATIONS. I CONTINUED THE APCH AND ACQUIRED THE RWY AT APPROX 250 FT AGL AND MADE A NORMAL TOUCHDOWN. AFTER TOUCHDOWN AND SUBSEQUENT APPLICATION OF BRAKES, I EXPERIENCED A STRONG, SUDDEN GUST OF WIND (R QUARTERING TAILWIND GUST). THE GUST PUSHED THE ACFT DOWN THE RWY AND PRECLUDED A GAR. BRAKING EFFECTIVENESS WAS DETERIORATED BY HYDROPLANING. I EMPLOYED MAX BRAKING TECHNIQUE TO BRING THE ACFT TO A STOP. THE ACFT OVERRAN THE RWY INTO SOFT SAND. UPON ENTERING THE SAND, THE R MAIN GEAR COLLAPSED AND THE ACFT CAME TO A STOP. NO ONE WAS INJURED. THE 4 PAX WERE DEPLANED THROUGH THE MAIN CABIN DOOR AND ESCORTED INTO THE TERMINAL. AWOS RPTS SHOW THAT SIGNIFICANT WIND GUSTS BEGAN TO OCCUR AT THE SAME TIME WE WERE ROLLING OUT FROM TOUCHDOWN. THE GUSTING WIND WAS NOT RPTED TO ME BY AWOS PRIOR TO THE APCH AND WAS THE CAUSE OF THE OVERRUN.
