| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot made two uneventful night full-stop landings, noting "swirling winds" on final approach that were "strange" but had "no considerable impact." As he flared for the third landing, the airplane "went nose down in a quick motion." He heard the nose gear strut collapse so he added power and made a go-around. He then landed uneventfully. Post-accident examination revealed the firewall and related structural components had been bent. There were also 1/6-inch nicks on two of the three propeller blade tips. According to the airport's AWOS (Automated Weather Observing System), the wind was calm at the time of the accident.
Probable Cause: The pilot's delay in reacting to the adverse wind conditions.
