Accident Sequence
The airplane sustained substantial damage during an attempted go-around from a practice landing. According to the pilot, on the third landing attempt, while at an altitude of approximately 5 to 10 feet above ground level, the aircraft was aligned just left of the runway centerline with the right wing tip slightly low. The pilot reported experiencing a small, unexpected gust of wind at that moment.
In response, the pilot initiated a go-around by applying full power and retrimming the airplane. The aircraft began to gain altitude momentarily, but the pilot then mistakenly retracted all of the flaps. This caused the airplane to settle back toward the runway. The right wing tip impacted the runway surface.
The pilot stated that he subsequently overcorrected, which led to the left wing tip also striking the runway. The airplane then exited the runway, coming to a full stop in snow located on the east side of the runway.
