What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
Upon landing, the aircraft caught a gust of wind from the left side that lifted the aircraft off the ground and displaced it to the right of the runway surface. The aircraft suffered substantial damage to the right wing spar. The engines ingested FOD and all three landing gears were destoyed. The forecast and reported winds were within the pilot and aircraft tolerances. Local climatological data shows evidence of a cold front passage approximately three hours prior to the accident. Gusty winds were persistent throughout the day.
