Narrative:While on final approach to runway 10, the airplane encountered moderate turbulence and the pilot noted that the windsock was perpendicular to the runway. As the pilot attempted to flare the airplane, a crosswind forced the left wing down, and it struck the runway. The airplane yawed to the right, and then to the left, and the pilot applied full power in an attempt to "regain altitude." The airplane then veered left, and impacted the ground about 20 feet from a building.
Probable Cause: The pilot's inadequate compensation for wind conditions which resulted in a collision with the runway. A factor was the crosswind.
