The pilot had undertaken a private flight from Port Pirie with intent to land at a property. On arrival in the general area, he saw an airstrip, believing that he had arrived at his destination and commenced an approach for landing. After touchdown, the pilot realised the airstrip was unsuitable for the operation, but elected to continue the landing. The aircraft overshot the airstrip and the left wing collided with a tree, resulting in substantial damage.
