PLT OF AN SMA TWIN LOST CTL OF THE ACFT DURING LNDG IN GUSTY WINDS CAUSING A PROP STRIKE RESULTING IN DAMAGE TO THE R PROP AND LNDG GEAR EXTENSION SYS. ALSO; R BRAKE MECHANISM.

Narrative

I WAS ON FINAL APCH FOR RWY 16 INTO PALWAUKEE MUNI AFTER BREAKING OUT OF CLOUDS ON THE ILS. THE ATIS WINDS WERE RPTED TO BE 230 DEGS AT 21 KTS GUSTING 35 KTS. GIVEN MY CRAB ANGLE; THE XWIND APPEARED TO BE TOO GREAT FOR RWY 16. AFTER ASKING TWR FOR WIND CHK; 230 DEGS; 21 KTS GUSTING 40 KTS; I ELECTED TO USE RWY 24 AND ENTERED A WIDE R DOWNWIND TO BASE. AIRSPD ON FINAL APCH WAS APPROX 110-115 KTS. OVER RWY THRESHOLD AT APPROX 20-30 FT AGL I REDUCED PWR IN ANTICIPATION OF LNDG FLARE. THE GUSTING WIND APPARENTLY SUBSIDED AT THIS TIME; AIRSPD DROPPED AS I ADDED MORE PWR. AT THIS TIME THE AIRPLANE PITCHED OVER (FWD) AND TO THE R AND BOUNCED OFF THE RWY. I WAS AT TKOF PWR AND ELECTED TO GAR. AFTER ESTABLISHING CLB; GEAR RETRACTED; I ENTERED L XWIND AND THEN DOWNWIND FOR RWY 24. I HAD NOTICED SHORTLY AFTER TKOF THE R ENG WAS VIBRATING AND DID NOT SOUND NORMAL. SUSPECTING A PROP STRIKE ON THE R; I REDUCED PROP RPM ON BOTH ENGS AND EXTENDED THE LNDG GEAR FOR STABILITY. WITH NO GREEN LIGHTS ON GEAR INDICATION; I PULLED GEAR MOTOR CIRCUIT BREAKER AND HAND CRANKED APPROX 3/4 TO 1 TURN AND GOT 3 GREEN. AFTER TURNING L BASE FOR RWY 24 I ASKED TWR FOR A LOW PASS TO VISUALLY LOOK AT LNDG GEAR POS. SOON AFTER ON FINAL APCH; I ELECTED TO LAND GIVEN THE UNCERTAIN CONDITION OF R PROP AND THAT THE TWR SAID GEAR APPEARED TO BE DOWN. LNDG WAS NORMAL ONTO RWY 24; BUT ON THE ROLLOUT THERE WAS NO BRAKING ON R SIDE. AIRPLANE WAS STOPPED AT END OF RWY; I SHUT DOWN BOTH ENGS THEN NOTICED BENT R PROP BLADES (3). GND TUG WAS SENT TO PULL AIRPLANE OFF RWY AS PER MY REQUEST; GIVEN PROP AND BRAKE CONDITION. IN MY OPINION SOME OF THE CONTRIBUTING FACTORS IN THIS OCCURRENCE INCLUDE THE GUSTY/WINDSHEAR CONDITIONS AND PLT'S RELUCTANCE TO MAINTAIN ADDITIONAL AIRSPD (AS GUSTY CONDITIONS DICTATE) ON SHORT FINAL GIVEN THE SHORTNESS OF LNDG RWY -- 3652 FT USABLE. PLT WAS NEAR COMPLETION OF 3.7 HR FLT; MOSTLY IN VMC; WELL RESTED; IN GOOD PHYSICAL/MENTAL CONDITION AND PROFICIENT IN XWIND LNDG TECHNIQUE.
