The pilot reported the winds as out of the north at 10 knots gusting to 15 knots as he was attempting to land on runway 10. A weather station reported winds 30 minutes prior to the accident as 030 degrees at 5 knots. The left main landing gear collapsed and then the aircraft ground looped. In a written statement, the pilot said, 'lost aircraft on crosswind landing and ground looped.'
Probable Cause: the inadequate compensation for the wind conditions and the failure of the pilot to maintain directional control. A factor to the accident was the crosswind condition.
