Narrative:The pilot arranged for a check flight in the aircraft, as it was a type he had not flown for some time. The instructor commented that as the pilot made rudder corrections during the takeoff roll, he also inadvertently applied light braking. After a period of general flying, the aircraft was returned to the circuit for a landing in moderate crosswind conditions. Touchdown was made in a three-point attitude, but shortly afterwards the aircraft commenced to swing to the right. Corrective measures by both pilots were unable to arrest the swing and the left gear subsequently collapsed. The pilot had used left aileron and right rudder inputs to align the aircraft at touchdown, and had possibly inadvertently applied braking to the right mainwheel.
