Narrative:
The airplane collided with the runway following a loss of control while landing. The accident occurred as the pilot was arriving at EAA AirVenture 2005. The pilot reported he made a low turn onto final approach, possibly encountered a wind gust, and the airplane stalled. The pilot reported the winds as being from 270 degrees at 11 knots, gusting to 20 knots. The winds reported at the airport 7 minutes prior to the accident were from 250 degrees at 11 knots, gusting to 15 knots.

Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain airspeed sufficient enough to compensate for the gusty crosswind condition and prevent a stall during the landing flare. A factor associated with the accident was the gusting crosswind condition.
