That's everything on file so far — TailWiki checks the FAA registry daily and adds new entries as N4102N's record changes.
The pilot in the tailwheel-equipped airplane reported that the airplane bounced during the wheel-landing on the narrow private grass airstrip. He allowed a "slight drift" to persist without adequate corrective rudder input, and the right wing collided with the cornstalks that outlined the perimeter of the airstrip. The right main landing gear failed, and the airplane came to rest on its right wing which was in contact with the ground.
The airplane sustained substantial to the right wing.
The pilot reported that there were no mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
