Narrative:The commercial pilot was landing the tail wheel equipped airplane on runway 25. The pilot stated that during the landing rollout, the airplane encountered a gust of wind and veered to the left. The pilot attempted to regain runway centerline, however, the airplane continued to the left and encountered rough terrain. After encountering the rough terrain, the airplane's right main gear collapsed resulting in substantial damage to the right wing spar and aileron. The pilot reported that the winds, at the time of the accident, were from 190 degrees at 3-5 knots, gusting to 10-15 knots.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to adequately compensate for wind conditions and his failure to maintain directional control. Factors include rough uneven terrain.
