Read the full NTSB narrative
The pilot performed a wheel landing on runway 21 and as the tail settled, a wind gust caused the airplane to exit the runway to the right. The airplane encountered a 2-foot drop-off on the runway edge, and nosed over onto its back. A single skid mark was observed on the runway surface that corresponded to the right wheel of the airplane; however, post accident examination revealed no anomalies with the braking system. About 25 minutes prior to the accident, the weather reporting facility at the airport reported winds from 340 degrees at 7 knots. The pilot estimated the winds to be variable at 10 knots, gusting to 20 knots at the time of the accident.
