Accident Overview
An experimental amateur-built airplane equipped with a tailwheel configuration was involved in an accident during a landing attempt. The pilot reported that while landing with a slight right crosswind, the airplane flared too early, causing a bounce. In response, the pilot aborted the landing by applying full power. During the go-around, the airplane drifted to the left, and the left wing made contact with the ground. The pilot then overcorrected to the right, leading to an aerodynamic stall. The airplane subsequently impacted the ground and nosed over.
The airplane sustained substantial damage to the right wing and the empennage. The pilot reported that there were no mechanical malfunctions or failures that would have precluded normal operation.
Environmental Conditions
At the time of the accident, the wind at the airport was reported as 280 degrees at 6 knots, gusting to 8 knots. The pilot had been attempting to land on runway 25.
