Incident Overview
A Cessna 170A aircraft experienced a loss of directional control during a landing attempt at an airport, resulting in a collision with a parked Lake LA-4 and subsequent impact with steel posts near the refueling facility.
Sequence of Events
The pilot reported that he initially intended to perform a full stop landing. While on final approach, he realized his altitude was too high and executed a go-around. On a second approach, he aimed for a full stall landing. The pilot noted that the second approach was slightly high. The main landing gear made contact with the runway first, causing the Cessna to bounce. After the bounce, the aircraft descended again and began to veer left of the runway centerline. The pilot applied full power, but was unable to regain directional control or achieve a climb. The Cessna's right wing then made contact with the right wing of a Lake LA-4 airplane. The Lake was stationary, with its engine running, near the airport refueling facility. Following the collision, the Cessna impacted steel posts surrounding the refueling facility and came to a stop upright along an embankment.
Aircraft Information
The aircraft involved were a Cessna 170A and a Lake LA-4. The Cessna was performing a landing maneuver, while the Lake was positioned on the ground with its engine operating near the fuel facility.
Outcome
The Cessna came to rest upright on an embankment after hitting the steel posts. Further details regarding damage or injuries were not provided in the source.
