The pilot overflew the field prior to landing and the windsock showed close to no wind. During approach, the pilot also checked ground speed and airspeed, there was a difference of 4kts (back-wind). When the aircraft came to flare the pilot didn’t realise that a strong gust from the back arrested the descent. When the aircraft came to touch down, it was deep in the field and could not stop. Contact was made with a fence with the left wing and the whole aircraft turned around. The left wheel broke off and the right wing also hit the fence.
