Factual narrative
THE ACFT WAS BLOWN OFF THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE RUNWAY DURING THE FLARE FOR LANDING AND THE GEAR COLLAPSED AFTER LANDING. THE PILOT RECEIVED A WEATHER BRIEFING AND WIND WARNING. HE STATED THAT THE ACFT FLOATED ABOUT 2000 FEET DOWN THE RUNWAY AFTER HE FLARED BEFORE TOUCHING DOWN. AN ATTEMPTED GO-AROUND WAS UNSUCCESSFUL SO THE PILOT CHOPPED THE POWER TO LAND. THE LANDING WAS OFF THE RUNWAY AND THE LANDING GEAR COLLAPSED. THE WIND WAS FROM 320 DEGREES AT 12 KTS. GUSTING TO 20 KTS.
