Narrative:
The pilot of the tailwheel-equipped airplane reported that, during the landing roll, the airplane veered to the left off the runway. He added that he applied full power and “managed to maneuver the plane out of the ground loop but started taking out runway lights” as he maneuvered the airplane back toward the runway. The airplane impacted a runway light and two taxiway signs, damaging the main landing gear. The airplane then “flew over the runway,” landed, and the main landing gear collapsed.
The airplane sustained substantial damage to the fuselage and left wing lift struts.
The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.


Probable Cause: The pilot’s failure to maintain directional control during the landing roll.
