Landing Incident
A pilot involved in a landing accident provided a written statement describing the sequence of events. According to the pilot, the approach to landing was "normal" until the airplane crossed the runway threshold. At that point, a "large westerly gust sharply lifted the right wing."
Pilot Actions and Outcome
The pilot reported that he applied corrective actions following the gust-induced wing lift. However, despite these efforts, the aircraft's left wing contacted the ground approximately 20 to 25 feet east of the runway. The airplane subsequently "cartwheeled."
Wind Conditions
The pilot stated that the winds at the time were from the southwest at 15 knots with "gusts." No further details about the specific gust magnitude were provided.
Damage and Injuries
The source does not specify the extent of damage to the aircraft or any injuries to occupants. Information regarding the aircraft type, registration, engine count, date, operator, and location is not included in the pilot's statement.
