Narrative:
Approaching airport from southwest. Winds reported 280 degrees variable 320; 9 KTS gusting to 16 KTS. I opted to land runway X - runway yy other choice. I opted to use no-flaps with marked crosswind. Indicated airspace 90-100 KIAS. Propellers and fuel full forward. 13 manifold pressure. Touchdown just beyond numbers and did not get stopped before end of runway. Plane went over embankment. No injuries. Lessons: use at least some flaps. I had before regularly; realize unfamiliar airport -- especially length of runway; elect to go another airport with longer runway and/or direction.
