That's everything on file so far — TailWiki checks the FAA registry daily and adds new entries as N8840S's record changes.
The pilot was conducting touch-and-go landings with a gusting left crosswind when the airplane bounced upon touchdown on the runway. The pilot reported he increased the throttle to takeoff power for a go-around, but the airplane drifted off the right side of the runway and entered an aerodynamic stall at a low altitude. The airplane came to rest upright in a crop field adjacent to the runway with substantial damage to both wings and the left aileron. The pilot reported that there were no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures that would have precluded normal operations.
