Narrative:

Advised by pease tower to land on displaced threshold for runway 34. I was under the hood. As we approached decision point, I was at approximately 400 ft and about 2 mi from the end of the runway. The sun was brilliant, as I approached the runway. When the hood came off, and I transitioned to visual, the only chevrons I could see were those in the overrun area. I landed in the overrun area, and then in the rollout, saw fresh new paint just ahead of the numbers. Pease tower advised that I landed short of the displaced threshold, and to check the undercarriage for any damage from past barrier installations. There was no damage found. Arrows should be installed to aid airmen to stay aloft in that area in low visibility. The chevrons there row were confused with the second set just ahead of the numbers.

Title: AN SMA LANDED ON THE OVERRUN.

Narrative: ADVISED BY PEASE TWR TO LAND ON DISPLACED THRESHOLD FOR RWY 34. I WAS UNDER THE HOOD. AS WE APCHED DECISION POINT, I WAS AT APPROX 400 FT AND ABOUT 2 MI FROM THE END OF THE RWY. THE SUN WAS BRILLIANT, AS I APCHED THE RWY. WHEN THE HOOD CAME OFF, AND I TRANSITIONED TO VISUAL, THE ONLY CHEVRONS I COULD SEE WERE THOSE IN THE OVERRUN AREA. I LANDED IN THE OVERRUN AREA, AND THEN IN THE ROLLOUT, SAW FRESH NEW PAINT JUST AHEAD OF THE NUMBERS. PEASE TWR ADVISED THAT I LANDED SHORT OF THE DISPLACED THRESHOLD, AND TO CHK THE UNDERCARRIAGE FOR ANY DAMAGE FROM PAST BARRIER INSTALLATIONS. THERE WAS NO DAMAGE FOUND. ARROWS SHOULD BE INSTALLED TO AID AIRMEN TO STAY ALOFT IN THAT AREA IN LOW VISIBILITY. THE CHEVRONS THERE ROW WERE CONFUSED WITH THE SECOND SET JUST AHEAD OF THE NUMBERS.
