Incident Overview
During a landing, the pilot executed a wheel landing and touched down approximately one-third of the way down the runway. According to the pilot, a gust of wind then caught the aircraft, causing it to begin tracking toward the right side of the runway.
Pilot Actions
To correct the drift, the pilot applied left rudder input in an attempt to bring the aircraft back to the runway centerline. However, the pilot stated that the tail wheel 'caught' and, with the assistance of gusting crosswinds, the aircraft subsequently ground looped.
Damage
As a result of the ground loop, the aircraft sustained damage to the right wing and aileron.
