Factual narrative
THE PILOT REPORTED ENCOUNTERING WIND SHEAR AT ABOUT 300 FT FROM THE APPROACH END OF RUNWAY 31. HE STATED THAT THE AIRCRAFT CRABBED TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT RUDDER WAS APPLIED. ALSO, HE REPORTED THAT THE PLANE STALLED ABOUT SIX TO TEN FEET ABOVE THE RUNWAY AND TOUCHED DOWN HARD IN A NEAR LEVEL ATTITUDE. THERE WAS SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE TO THE WING SPARS, A MAIN GEAR ATTACH BRACKET, AND THE ENGINE MOUNTS. THE PILOT REPORTED THE SURFACE WIND FROM 260 DEGREES AT 10 GUSTING 15 KNOTS. ALSO, THE PILOT NOTED THAT HE DID NOT USE POWER THROUGHOUT THE LANDING. Source: NTSB Aviation Accident Database (Pre-2008 Archive) Retrieved: 2026-02-12
