Narrative:
The pilot of the amateur-built Dakota Hawk DH23 had just landed and had slowed the airplane to about 20 mph during the rollout when the right main landing gear collapsed rearward. The airplane ground-looped, and the right wing impacted the pavement. A subsequent Federal Aviation Administration examination of the airplane revealed that the landing gear tubing, under a flange in an area that was difficult to see, appeared to have been cracked prior to the accident. The airplane was manufactured in 2006 and had 90 hours of operation.

Probable Cause: Preexisting cracking of the landing gear tubing.
