That's everything on file so far — TailWiki checks the FAA registry daily and adds new entries as N1061Y's record changes.
The private pilot of the personal flight stated that during his second attempt at practicing a crosswind takeoff and landing, he encountered an increased crosswind/gust. To prevent the airplane from drifting off the side of the runway, he lowered the right wing into the wind when the airplane was about 4-5 ft. above the runway. The airplane then stalled and experienced a hard landing on the runway that resulted in substantial damage to right wing. The pilot stated there was no mechanical malfunction/failure of the airplane.
