| Investigating agency: | NTSB |
| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot reported that while on final approach, the airplane was 'high', so he pulled off power to lose altitude and reduce airspeed. As the airplane was nearing the runway, the airplane entered an inadvertent aerodynamic stall. The stall horn sounded as the airplane pitched up, and the left wing lost lift. The airplane collided with terrain in a left-wing low attitude. The airplane sustained substantial damage to both wings and fuselage. The pilot reported that there were no mechanical malfunctions or failure with the airplane that would have precluded normal operations. The pilot also reported that he did not add power which allowed the airplane to enter a stall.
Probable Cause: The failure of the pilot to maintain adequate airspeed during landing resulting in an inadvertent aerodynamic stall.
