Incident Overview
A pilot reported that during the landing touchdown of a tail wheel equipped airplane, with flaps extended, the stall warning horn sounded. Immediately following touchdown, a gust of wind caused the airplane to balloon approximately 10 feet and drift left. The pilot applied power to initiate a go-around, but the airplane continued to drift and subsequently collided with the ground.
Damage
The airplane sustained substantial damage to the fuselage and both wings.
Environmental Conditions
At the time of the incident, the airplane was landing on runway 16. The wind was from 250° at 16 knots, gusting to 28 knots, creating a crosswind condition.
Pilot Report
The pilot reported no preimpact mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation. The pilot recommended using less flaps and more airspeed when landing in a crosswind.
