| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot reported that, while on short final in his tailwheel-equipped airplane, he began to feel 'slow.' He added power and realized he had drifted right of the runway centerline. In an attempt to recover, he 'pulled back too much on the stick,' and the airplane stalled just above the ground. Subsequently, the airplane impacted right of the runway in a nose-low attitude and came to rest inverted. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the wings and fuselage. The pilot reported that the airplane had no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain adequate airspeed during landing, which led to the airplane exceeding its critical angle-of-attack and experiencing an aerodynamic stall.
