Read the full NTSB narrative
The pilot of a tailwheel equipped airplane reported that, during landing and upon touchdown, the airplane veered abruptly to the right with a lower-than-normal right wing. He applied left rudder and brake and the airplane veered to the left and exited the runway. The right main landing gear wheel dug into the gravel, the airplane spun and the right wingtip struck the ground. The right wing sustained substantial damage. The pilot discovered the right main landing gear tire was flat.
