What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) On approach to rwy 28, winds were gusty from the nw but PIC thought they were within his and the aircraft's limitations. He admits being too slow, just above a stall, when he was "blown off centerline". He ended up landing in rough grass on the left (south) side of the runway. All three landing gear were damaged and the plane flipped over, crushing the verticle stabilizer and rudder. Airport manager states the plane came to a stop approx. 500' from the runway. The plane was disassembled and moved to his hangar by the owner prior to NTSB notification.
