Sequence of events
NTSB’s coding before 2008: each occurrence and phase of flight, and the causes and factors under it. The codes are defined in NTSB’s coding manual.
Analysis
The pilot said he was landing into the wind and when he was 20 feet above the runway, the wind seemed to shift to a tail wind. The airplane stalled, hit the runway hard and bounced. The pilot said he pushed the control wheel forward and the nose wheel hit the runway and collapsed. A thunderstorm hit the airport 20 minutes after the accident.
