| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot reported that, during landing he input 10o of flaps and placed the airplane in a slight/crab with aileron input to compensate for the crosswind. Just before touchdown, the right wing lifted, and the airplane landed hard with a side load on the left main landing gear. The airplane veered to the left and traveled into a dirt area between the runway and taxiway. The pilot applied full throttle to abort the landing however the airplane would not climb. The airplane sustained substantial damage after it struck a parked airplane and fuel truck; the left wing separated, and the airplane came to rest inverted. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain directional control during landing with a crosswind, which resulted in a collision with a fuel truck and a parked airplane.
