Narrative:The pilot of the tailwheel equipped airplane reported that, while landing, the airplane 'bounced a bit' and veered left. He corrected with application of right brake input, however, his foot slipped off the heel brake. During the subsequent attempt to apply rudder control, he unintentionally applied the brake. The nose veered to the right and before the airplane came to a complete stop, the tail rose, and the airplane nosed over coming to rest inverted. The right- wing lift strut was substantially damaged. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain directional control during landing, which resulted in the airplane nosing over.
