The pilot reported that he was practicing touch-and-go landings and had completed five when the tower air traffic controller requested that he do a short approach. The pilot stated that he was landing with full flaps, and the wind was 180 degrees at 5 knots gusting to 18 knots. He added that the airplane landed 'flat†and bounced. The airplane drifted to the right, and the pilot was unable to correct the drift. The airplane exited the runway and came to rest nose down in a shallow ditch. Examination of the airplane revealed that the left wing tip was damaged and the nose gear had collapsed, resulting in substantial damage to the firewall.
Probable Cause: The pilot's improper recovery from a bounced landing.
