That's everything on file so far — TailWiki checks the FAA registry daily and adds new entries as N1000Y's record changes.
The pilot of the tailwheel equipped airplane reported that, while departing from a dirt road, the airplane “may have encountered a quartering tailwind” and veered to the left. While attempting to correct back to the road, the airplane exited to the left side of the road, ground looped, and struck a fence post which resulted in substantial damage to the right wing.
The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
