What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
The pilot was approaching to land on his private strip, runway 31, 1600' long. He stated that the winds were from the southwest, gusting between 25 and 35 knots. Because of trees, runway 13 is not available for landing. Due to the winds, the PIC executed a go-around on his first attempt. On his second attempt, as he descended below the tree tops, it seemed that the winds suddently stopped and the aircraft began to sink rapidly. The PIC believes he added full power, but the aircraft continued to sink and hit the ground nose-first and then on the right main gear. The aircraft bounced/skidded for approximately 30 feet and then flipped upside down and came to a stop.
