The pilot of the recently purchased Hunter Comp Air 6 aircraft was landing on runway 16 at the McCall airport. Upon touchdown he bounced and then departed the runway nosing over.

Winds were reported as a 30 degree right crosswind at 10 knots and the pilot had about 3 hours total time in the make/model of the accident aircraft.
