(-23) The flying pilot (copilot) decided to change landing runways from a final approach position of about 1 mile out for runway 21 to land on runway 19. The wind was from the east at about 10 knots. The maneuver required a 90 degree right turn to the west, followed by a 110 degree left turn while descending to the touchdown zone of runway 19. As the aircraft was sinking rapidly at a low speed and drifting across the runway, the captain called for a go-around. The aircraft touched down on the runway, on the right wing fuel tank while go-around power was being applied. As the aircraft lifted off, it rolled to the left and struck the left wing fuel tank on the runway. The aircraft became airborne, streaming fuel from the damaged right tank, flew a visual traffic pattern and landed on runway 19 without further incident. Damage to the right wing, just inboard of the fuel tank, was substantial. Statement from the tower controllers indicate that the aircraft was not on a stabilized approach and was still maneuvering as it crossed the end of runway 19 and began its landing flare.
