The NTSB's narrative final · quoted from the NTSB record
The pilot reported that, shortly after touchdown while conducting a full stop landing, a gust of wind caused the right wing to come up and the airplane veered to the left. The pilot attempted to correct with opposite aileron and rudder; however, the pilot overcorrected. The airplane veered to the right, entered a skid, and exited the right side of the runway which resulted in substantial damage to the left wing and fuselage. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation. At the time of the accident, the pilot was landing the airplane on runway 25 with wind from 330° at 8 knots.

About this page
Everything above comes from the NTSB's public accident database: the narrative, probable cause and findings are the NTSB's own words, and the coded tables behind its report (pilot, aircraft, flight, weather, injuries, sequence of events) are written out in plain English. Pilots' ages, home towns and medical details are left out on purpose. The documents and photographs are the NTSB's docket, the folder of records gathered during the investigation, shown as the NTSB released them (the NTSB redacts some personal details first) and listed under the NTSB's own titles. This site's own text never names pilots, passengers or anyone else involved. A preliminary report describes what is known soon after the event and can change; the final report, with the probable cause, usually follows one to two years later and this page is refreshed when it does. Case number ANC25LA047.
