What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
Pilot states he was cleared to land on runway 27R and given the wind from the tower of 220 at 11 knots. He maintained a stable approach on center line and made appropriate crosswind correction. Approaching the runway the pilot encountered a stronger crosswind than anticipated, the pilot flared early and bounced the aircraft at touchdown. The pilot stated that he was blown off center-line to the right and when he corrected the left wing was lifted and the right wing tip contacted the runway causing minor damage (scuffed some paint off the right wing tip). Pilot certificate number amended.
