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 was making a landing to the west when he experienced a loss of directional control and groundlooped on the right side of the runway. He said the tailwheel of the acft was already on the ground when the groundloop occurred and he lost control when a sudden gust of wind occurred. The pilot reported winds out of the east at 15 gusting to 25 knots.
