Narrative:
The airplane was landing on runway 24, a 2,009 foot-long, 50 foot-wide, asphalt runway. The pilot stated that after touchdown, the airplane bounced, and the wind caused the airplane's right wing to contact the ground. The airplane cart-wheeled and came to rest off the runway. Winds reported at an airport located about 13 miles north-northeast of the accident site, about the time of the accident, were from 220 degrees at 15 knots, with 19 knot gusts.

Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain aircraft control while landing. A factor in this accident was the crosswind condition.
