What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
The pilot stated he was landing in gusty surface wind conditions. Upon flaring to land, a gust of wind caught the aircraft and caused the aircraft's nose to pitch up, which initiated a stall causing the aircraft to settle down upon the runway harder than intended. From this, damage to the structure underneath the cockpit around the main landing gear, fabric of the aircraft covering the area, and damage to the right-wing tip occurred. The pilot was able to taxi clear of the runway in use at the time, and recieved no injuries from the accident. It was determined through the investigation. The pilot's competence is not in question.
