THE PLT STATED THAT DURING ARRIVAL, HE ENTERED A TRAFFIC PATTERN FOR WHAT HE THOUGHT, ACCORDING TO HIS DIRECTIONAL GYRO, WAS RWY 9. RWY 9 WAS 2500 FT LONG; HOWEVER, HE LANDED ON RWY 3, WHICH WAS 1520 FT LONG. DURING THE LANDING, THE PLT WAS UNABLE TO STOP ON THE RWY. AFTER IT WENT OFF THE END, IT HIT A CONCRETE BLOCK WHICH WAS NOT VISIBLE IN THE GRASS. PRESUMABLY, THE PLT DID NOT X-CHECK HIS GYRO WITH THE MAGNETIC COMPASS.
