NTSB narrative
During descent to the destination airport, the pilot confirmed that the closest weather station reported the wind from 030° at 10 knots, gusting to 16 knots, so he planned to land on runway 34. While on the base leg of the traffic pattern, he extended the flaps to 100%, reduced the engine power, and slowed to 85 knots indicated airspeed (KIAS). While on final approach and after clearing a set of powerlines that were perpendicular to the runway, he made a steep approach to the runway. As the airplane was above the displaced threshold, the airspeed decreased to about 63 KIAS, entered an aerodynamic stall, and landed hard on the runway. As the airplane bounced, the pilot increased engine power to go around, then lost control, veered off the left side of the runway and impacted a tree and terrain. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the fuselage, wings, and engine mount. Postaccident examination of the runway revealed three distinct gouges where the landing gear impacted during the hard, bounced landing. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable cause
The pilot’s failure to maintain adequate airspeed during landing, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall and loss of control during a go-around.

Source notes (4)
- Unreviewed is an editorial label, not an investigation status. API-sourced is not report-checked or human-reviewed. Explicit event totals are used without summing aircraft injury tables; onboard allocation is withheld. Unknown values remain unknown. The operation category is mapped from the NTSB-reported FAR part and has not been reviewed.
- Filled from the NTSB case API where the bulk record had no value: investigation status, coordinates, cause areas. Values present in the bulk record are kept.
- The date is the local date, which is the same as the UTC date the NTSB stores.
