Landing and Initial Events
The pilot landed on Runway 07 in variable wind conditions with gusts to 20 knots. After touchdown, he encountered a crosswind gust that caused the aircraft to become airborne and balloon about 3 feet. He added a slight amount of power to control the aircraft and attempt a three-point landing.
Subsequent Sequence
The aircraft touched down firmly, bounced, and began to drift left. The pilot initiated a go-around. However, according to reports, gusty winds picked up the right wing. Subsequently, the left wing struck the ground and the aircraft cartwheeled.
Environmental Conditions
The density altitude at the time was approximately 6000 feet.
