THE PRIVATE PILOT STATED THAT AFTER A BRIEF LOCAL FLIGHT, HE RETURNED TO THE AIRPORT AND ENTERED THE TRAFFIC PATTERN FOR RUNWAY 27 (2,155' X 33', ASPHALT). WINDS WERE REPORTED TO BE OUT OF 320 DEGREES AT 13 KNOTS WITH GUSTS TO 20 KNOTS. THE PILOT DESCRIBED HIS APPROACH TO LANDING AND TOUCHDOWN AS 'SMOOTH AND NORMAL.' HOWEVER, HE REPORTED THAT AS THE AIRCRAFT WAS ROLLING OUT 'A STRONG GUST CAUGHT THE AIRPLANE.' THE PILOT ATTEMPTED TO ABORT THE LANDING, BUT THE AIRCRAFT SETTLED BACK ONTO THE GROUND (SOFT SOD) ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE RUNWAY. THE NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED AND THE AIRCRAFT NOSED OVER, COMING TO A STOP INVERTED ON THE GROUND.
Probable Cause: INADEQUATE COMPENSATION FOR WIND CONDITIONS BY THE PILOT, AND HIS FAILURE TO MAINTAIN RUNWAY ALIGNMENT DURING THE ATTEMPTED GO-AROUND (ABORTED LANDING). THE WIND CONDITIONS AND SOFT TERRAIN WERE RELATED FACTORS.
