That's everything on file so far — TailWiki checks the FAA registry daily and adds new entries as N17HY's record changes.
The pilot reported that while on final approach a crosswind gust pushed the nose of the airplane to the left. The pilot corrected back to the runway centerline and, after landing, a wind gust turned the tail and the airplane ground-looped. During the ground loop, the left wing touched the ground and the left gear collapsed. The undercarriage of the airplane where the left main gear attaches to the fuselage sustained substantial damage.
