| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot reported that just before touchdown a gust of wind struck the airplane and lifted the right wing, which resulted in the left wheel contacting the runway. The airplane veered left, and the pilot initiated a go-around. However, the airplane did not gain enough altitude to clear the chain link fence on the left side of the runway. The landing gear struck the fence, and the airplane nosed over, substantially damaging the left wing. The pilot reported no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain airplane control during landing in gusting wind conditions, and the airplane's subsequent collision with a fence during the go-around attempt.
