Accident Overview
A pilot was landing an airplane in gusty crosswind conditions with the wind from approximately 50 degrees left. During the approach, the airplane drifted to the right prior to touchdown. The pilot corrected left, and the airplane touched down to the right of the runway centerline.
Loss of Control
After touchdown, the airplane drifted left and began paralleling the runway. The pilot applied power for a go-around, but during the attempt, the left wing rose and the right wing dragged on the ground. Subsequently, the airplane settled onto both main wheels and then came to a stop, nosing over.
Pilot Statement
Following the accident, the pilot reported that his son, who was seated in the right front seat, was bracing himself against the rudder pedals.
