This was the maiden flight for a experimental Horizon One airplane, after being built by the pilot/builder. On short final, the pilot slowed his airspeed to 60 mph (20 mph above stall speed), and selected 1/2 flaps. The pilot experienced a wind gust and lost forward airspeed and control of the airplane. The airplane impacted the runway.
Probable Cause: the pilot's failure to maintain aircraft control and airspeed. A factor was the pilot's lack of experience in type of aircraft.
