Read the full NTSB narrative
The pilot was executing his second touch-and-go landing using full flaps on the 7,500 foot long runway. He reported a left quartering headwind of 10 knots with gusts to 18 knots. During the landing, the airplane encountered a gust. The aircraft touched down in a left crab, and the right wing struck the ground, during which the nose landing gear collapsed. During a subsequent ground slide, a fire developed in the engine area, which consumed the aircraft after coming to rest.
