The student pilot reported that, during landing, he became complacent and did not compensate for a right crosswind. The airplane exited the left side of the runway, crossed over the taxiway, and the right main landing gear collapsed. Subsequently, the right wing and the stabilator struck the ground.
The airplane sustained substantial damage to the right wing and the stabilator.
The student reported that there were no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
The student reported that the wind about the time of the accident was from 220° at 9 knots. The student landed the airplane on runway 18.
Probable Cause: The student pilot's complacency, which led to his improper crosswind correction and subsequent failure to maintain directional control during the landing roll, which resulted in a runway excursion and ground collision.
