Incident Summary
The pilot of a single-engine airplane reported that during the landing phase of a cross-country flight, thunderstorms were present in the vicinity of the airstrip. No rain was falling at the airstrip itself, but the pilot noted a tailwind of 8 to 10 knots with gusts up to 15 knots.
Sequence of Events
Just before touchdown, the pilot observed that the descent rate increased and the airplane pitched forward. In response, the pilot increased engine power to slow the descent, then reduced power to land. At touchdown, the pilot realized that the airplane could not be stopped on the remaining runway and aborted the landing.
During the subsequent go-around, the airplane flew under a marked wire and subsequently struck an unmarked static wire. The pilot did not provide further details regarding damage or injuries.
Pilot's Account
The pilot's account included the presence of thunderstorms near the airstrip, a tailwind component of 8 to 10 knots with gusts to 15 knots, and a sudden pitch-forward and increased descent just before touchdown. The pilot also described the abort and the encounter with the wires during the go-around.
