Incident Overview
The pilot reported that during a normal approach with the flaps in the full extended position, powerlines were observed prior to the runway. The pilot stated that he focused on clearing the powerlines and lost track of the airplane's speed.
Sequence of Events
The airplane cleared the powerlines, and shortly thereafter, it descended rapidly. The airplane struck the ground hard and bounced before impacting the ground a second time in a nose-low attitude. Following the second impact, the airplane flipped over and came to rest inverted just short of the runway surface.
Damage Assessment
During the accident sequence, the airplane's wings and empennage were substantially damaged. The pilot reported no preimpact mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airframe or engine that would have precluded normal operation.
Findings
No preexisting mechanical issues were identified. The pilot's focus on clearing the powerlines resulted in a loss of awareness of airspeed, leading to the hard landing and subsequent rollover.
