Accident Sequence
A pilot lost directional control and failed to maintain runway alignment while attempting to land, resulting in a collision with multiple obstacles on the airport. During the landing flare, approximately 3 feet above ground level, the airplane encountered a strong wind shear from the west. The airplane turned about 45 degrees to the left. The pilot initiated a go-around by adding full throttle and applied full right rudder pressure in an effort to regain runway alignment.
Events During Go-Around
The main landing gear and flaps remained in the down position, and the airplane did not establish a positive rate of climb. Subsequently, the airplane struck the top of a fuel island and collided with a sign. The airplane then made contact with the ground about 50 feet north of the fuel island and slid into a hangar, colliding with an unoccupied car that was parked inside.
Mechanical Status
The pilot did not report any mechanical problems with the airplane prior to the accident.
