Accident Details
The pilot of a tailwheel-equipped airplane reported that, during the landing roll in a gusting crosswind, the airplane veered to the left. He added right rudder, which slowed the veer, but observed that the airplane was going to depart the runway. He then added full power and right rudder to abort the landing. The airplane became airborne, but "stopped the climb, and slid tail first onto the ground." The right main landing gear collapsed, and the propeller and the right wing struck the ground.
Damage
The airplane sustained substantial damage to the right wing. The pilot reported no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions that would have precluded normal operation.
Weather Conditions
The airport's automated weather observation station reported that, about 10 minutes before the accident, the wind was from 010° at 10 knots. The same automated station reported that, about 10 minutes after the accident, the wind was from 340° at 14 knots. The pilot landed the airplane on runway 04.
Probable Cause
It is likely that during the aborted landing, the pilot aerodynamically stalled the airplane.
