The NTSB's narrative final · quoted from the NTSB record
The pilot of the tailwheel-equipped airplane reported that, during landing on a gravel airstrip, the airplane veered left. He started to go around, but the airplane continued left toward trees. To avoid the trees, he banked the airplane to the right, the right wing struck the ground, and the airplane cartwheeled and then came to rest on its landing gear. The airplane sustained 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.
