| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The airplane veered off the runway to the right and came to rest nose down in a ditch. The pilot had received an airport advisory from another airplane that the airport was experiencing a crosswind from the west and recommended runway 16. During the landing roll, with the tail still airborne, a gust of wind pushed the airplane to the right despite full rudder control input and braking by the pilot to the left.
Probable Cause: the pilot's inadequate compensation for the crosswind conditions and failure to maintain directional control of the airplane during the landing roll.
