Angwin-Parrett Field Airport
Aircraft Accident/Incident Report

Angwin, California 94508
Monday, May 3, 2010 16:00 PDT

NTSB Narrative Summary Released at Completion of Accident

The pilot reported that he was approaching runway 16 to land when the wind shifted to a 90-degree crosswind. The pilot continued the approach and landed; however, during the roll out the airplane encountered a wind gust and was blown to the right. The pilot stated the airplane departed the right side of the 50-foot wide runway and collided with a ditch. The nose gear collapsed and the airplane sustained substantial damage to the engine firewall and right wing. No pre-accident mechanical deficiencies with the airplane were reported.

NTSB Probable Cause Narrative

The pilot's inadequate compensation for the crosswind resulting in the loss of directional control during the landing roll.
