The pilot reported that he was attempting to perform a full flap touch and go landing in the tailwheel equipped airplane. He stated that the main wheels touched the ground first followed by the tailwheel and the airplane then veered off the left side of the runway and into a gully. The pilot reported no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation. Postaccident examination of the airplane revealed the left wing outboard of the strut attachment point, and the fuselage structure were bent.
According to the pilot of the tailwheel-equipped airplane, he landed on runway 28. During the rollout, the airplane became "erratic for no apparent reason," veered off the left side of the runway, encountered standing water in the grass and nosed over, damaging the vertical stabilizer. Runway 28 was 4,501-feet-long and 100-feet-wide. Winds, recorded at the airport 17 minutes after the accident, were from 360 degrees true at 12 knots. A postflight examination of the airplane revealed no preexisiting mechanical anomalies.
