Accident Details
The pilot reported that during the landing rollout on Runway 30, a gust of wind caused the aircraft's right wing to lift. The pilot was unable to correct the uplifting wing, and the aircraft entered a left groundloop maneuver and exited the runway.
ATC and Wind Information
The local controller reported that the pilot requested and received landing instructions approximately eight minutes before the accident. The aircraft was cleared for a straight-in approach to Runway 30. The surface winds at that time were from 320 degrees at 8 knots. Approximately four minutes before the accident, the pilot requested and received updated surface wind information, which indicated winds from 360 degrees at 14 knots.
Sequence of Events
The incident occurred during the rollout phase after landing. The pilot had received the initial landing clearance and wind information, and later requested updated wind data. Shortly after, during the landing rollout, a gust of wind affected the right wing, causing it to rise. Despite the pilot's efforts, the wing lift could not be corrected, resulting in a groundloop to the left and the aircraft departing the runway surface. The aircraft then came to rest off the runway.
