Narrative:

My wife was flying from the front seat. On rollout we started drifting to the right and eventually departed the runway at approximately a 20 degree angle. She brought in full throttle, I overrode and closed the throttle and brought the stick fully aft as we were headed to tall grass (estimated 2 ft high). After realizing that the aircraft would not nose over, I applied enough power to continue moving and turned left back to the runway. She then taxied our aircraft to the south ramp. No damage other than a flat tailwheel.

Title: LOSS OF ACFT CTL ON LNDG PROC ROLLOUT IN AN SMA.

Narrative: MY WIFE WAS FLYING FROM THE FRONT SEAT. ON ROLLOUT WE STARTED DRIFTING TO THE R AND EVENTUALLY DEPARTED THE RWY AT APPROX A 20 DEG ANGLE. SHE BROUGHT IN FULL THROTTLE, I OVERRODE AND CLOSED THE THROTTLE AND BROUGHT THE STICK FULLY AFT AS WE WERE HEADED TO TALL GRASS (ESTIMATED 2 FT HIGH). AFTER REALIZING THAT THE ACFT WOULD NOT NOSE OVER, I APPLIED ENOUGH PWR TO CONTINUE MOVING AND TURNED L BACK TO THE RWY. SHE THEN TAXIED OUR ACFT TO THE S RAMP. NO DAMAGE OTHER THAN A FLAT TAILWHEEL.
