The pilot said that he was landing with a right gusty crosswind, which had a slight tailwind component. During the landing roll, a gust of wind lifted the airplane’s right wing, and the airplane veered off the right side of the runway. When the airplane rolled onto soft soil, it nosed over onto its back. The airplane’s left wing strut, about 3 feet of the left wing tip, and the vertical stabilizer were bent and wrinkled.
