After performing maintenance to the unregistered powered parachute, the non-rated pilot decided to fly the aircraft in the traffic pattern at a private airstrip. After completing a flight for approximately 20 minutes, the pilot attempted another flight with a passenger. During landing, the pilot stated the aircraft's rear landing gear touched down and the aircraft encountered a gust of wind. Subsequently, the aircraft became airborne again and encountered power lines and a power pole approximately 30 feet above ground level adjacent to the runway. The aircraft impacted terrain and came to rest upright. A postaccident examination of the powered parachute revealed substantial damage to the fuselage. The pilot reported that there were no mechanical problems with the aircraft prior to the accident.
Probable Cause: The non-rated pilot's failure to maintain aircraft control during landing.
