Aircraft involved

Probable cause & findings

The pilot's failure to maintain directional control of the airplane during a landing roll. Factors associated with the accident was the gusty crosswind condition and the corn crop.

Factual narrative

The airplane nosed over following a loss of control during landing roll. The pilot reported that while in the traffic pattern to land to the south, he noted that the winds were from the west. He reported that after touching down the left wing came up. He reported that he applied "right stick", but the left wing stayed up. The pilot reported he then encountered a strong gust of wind and the airplane veered to the right. The airplane then traveled into a corn field where it nosed over. The pilot reported the winds were from the west at 20 knots, gusting to 25 knots. The airplane nosed over following a loss of control during the landing roll.
