Incident Details
The pilot reported that during the landing attempt, the airplane drifted to the left side of the runway prior to touchdown. He attempted to correct the drift by applying right rudder but was unable to do so because his shoe had become lodged between an object and the rudder pedal. Slight aileron input was ineffective, and the pilot did not apply additional aileron correction to avoid the right wing contacting the runway.
Pilot's Account
As the pilot applied full power for a go-around, the left flap contacted a runway edge light. The pilot stated that there were no mechanical abnormalities present with the airplane prior to the flight.
Go-Around and Landing
The go-around was routine, and the pilot subsequently returned for a normal landing.
Damage
The left flap and the left portion of the stabilator incurred damage.
