Incident Details
The pilot of a tailwheel-equipped airplane reported that during the landing roll, the airplane encountered a wind gust. He applied right rudder to counter the gust, but his foot slipped "completely off" the right rudder pedal. As a runway excursion to the left became imminent, the pilot attempted to use only the right heel brake to realign the airplane's heading. However, he inadvertently depressed both the left and right heel brakes, and the airplane nosed over.
Damage Assessment
The airplane sustained substantial damage to the vertical stabilizer and the rudder.
Pilot Report
The pilot reported that there were no mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
