Incident Details
A turbine-powered airplane experienced a hard landing during a go-around after the pilot initiated the procedure due to a perceived wind shift. The pilot stated that while landing on runway 20 in gusting crosswind conditions, it became "obvious" the wind had changed directions. He performed a go-around, but the wind "slammed [the airplane] to the ground extremely hard." Subsequently, the airplane veered to the right off the runway and then back to the left before coming to rest. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the fuselage.
Pilot Report
The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
Weather Conditions
The automated weather observation system at the accident airport reported that, about the time of the incident, the wind was from 270° at 19 knots, gusting to 25 knots.
