Approach and Initial Landing Attempt
The pilot reported that the approach to landing was uneventful. She noted there was some wind, but it was manageable. As the airplane crossed the runway numbers, a gust of wind pushed it approximately 50 feet to the right of the runway. She attempted to guide the airplane back over the runway.
Encounter with Second Gust and Decision to Go-Around
Before she could realign the airplane, another gust of wind affected its position. At that point, she decided to perform a go-around. The flaps were set at 40 degrees when she initiated the go-around.
Execution of Go-Around and Loss of Control
The pilot stated she applied full power for the go-around. Her next recollection was the airplane slamming into the ground, bouncing back up, and then coming to rest in a nose-down attitude.
Mechanical Status
According to the pilot, prior to the accident there were no indications of any mechanical failures or malfunctions to the airplane or any of its systems.
