Sequence of Events
At the end of a cross-country pleasure flight, the pilot set up for a landing on runway 14. While on the downwind leg, the pilot observed that the windsock was limp. Based on this observation, the pilot decided to make a 180-degree turn and land on runway 32 instead.
After the airplane touched down, the pilot felt the airplane being pushed by a tailwind. The airplane then became airborne again. The pilot forced the airplane back to the runway and applied brakes. However, the airplane began to skid.
Seeing that he was running out of runway to stop, and anticipating an accident, the pilot applied full power to clear a two-foot fence at the end of the runway and a public road running perpendicular to the runway.
Final Outcome
During the go-around, the left horizontal stabilizer contacted the fence. The airplane continued over the road. The left wing then contacted, and was separated by, a car parked next to a building approximately 100 feet from the end of the runway. The airplane continued along the side of the building, contacting the northeast corner. The airplane then came to rest on its left side.
