Probable cause

The pilot’s improper landing flare, which resulted in a bounced landing and a collapse of the left main landing gear.

NTSB narrative

According to the pilot, while landing, the airplane bounced twice and during the landing roll the airplane veered to the right. The pilot applied left rudder, but the airplane continued to turn right and came to a stop. Once the pilot egressed the airplane, he noticed that the left main landing gear had collapsed. Postaccident examination of the airplane revealed that it had sustained substantial damage to the fuselage and left wing. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures of the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
