Sunday, April 15, 2012 16:00 MDT

NTSB Narrative Summary Released at Completion of Accident

The pilot said that he was landing with a right gusty crosswind, which had a slight tailwind component. During the landing roll, a gust of wind lifted the airplane’s right wing, and the airplane veered off the right side of the runway. When the airplane rolled onto soft soil, it nosed over onto its back. The airplane’s left wing strut, about 3 feet of the left wing tip, and the vertical stabilizer were bent and wrinkled.

NTSB Probable Cause Narrative

The pilot did not maintain directional control during the landing roll.
