Accident Sequence
The airplane was landing to the north with a crosswind from the right. During touchdown, the airplane bounced and drifted to the right side of the runway. The pilot initiated a go-around by applying power and raising the nose to a pitch-up attitude. Subsequently, the right wing dropped to a 90-degree angle, and the airplane impacted trees located to the east of the runway.
Aircraft Condition
Post-accident examination revealed the flaps were set at 22 degrees, and the elevator pitch trim tab was found at 5 degrees tab down (nose up), which is near the nose-up limit stop. No mechanical anomalies were identified that would have affected normal flight operations.
