According to the pilot of an amateur-built RV-6A, he experienced a "slight" crosswind from the right while on final approach to the 3,695-foot-long, 50-foot wide asphalt runway. During the landing flare, the airplane unexpectedly "dropped," and impacted the runway. The airplane then bounced several times, and the nose landing gear collapsed during the last bounce. The airplane continued off the end of the runway and flipped over, resulting in substantial damage to both wings and the fuselage. The pilot reported 257 hours of total flight experience, 145 of which were in make and model. He also reported no mechanical anomalies with the airplane. The winds reported at the closest airport, 13 miles to the southeast, at the time of the accident, were variable at 3 knots.
