According to the pilot, during the initial touchdown on runway 21, in day visual meteorological conditions, the airplane became airborne and "in an instant later slammed on the nose wheel." The nose landing gear tire had a "blow-out," and the airplane slid to a stop. The pilot reported that during the landing, the wind was from 190 degrees at 27 knots gusting to 39 knots. The weather observation facility at the airport reported the wind from 200 degrees at 20 knots with gusts to 36 knots.
Probable Cause: the pilot's inadequate compensation for the wind conditions resulting in a hard landing. A contributing factor was the gusty winds.
