Accident Overview
The airplane came to rest after contacting terrain and vegetation following a loss of directional control during the landing phase. The incident occurred while the aircraft was touching down on runway 31.
Pilot Report
The pilot reported that during touchdown, a sudden "burst" of wind from the left pushed the airplane toward the right side of the runway. In response, the pilot applied full left rudder, aileron, and increased power in an attempt to execute an aborted landing. However, the pilot stated that the airplane did not achieve sufficient altitude during the go-around, leading to contact with vegetation along the runway edge before coming to a stop.
Environmental Conditions
Wind conditions recorded at a station 49 miles away at 1456 indicated winds from 230 degrees at 8 knots. The pilot reported local winds at the time of the event as from 220 degrees at 10 knots. The density altitude at the time of the accident was approximately 3,000 feet.
