The airplane was landing on the ultralight field when the accident occurred. The pilot stated that she made a wide base to final turn because she was unsure about the placement of the runway. Although the pilot added power, the airplane entered a left descending turn until the left wing contacted the ground near the beginning of the runway’s displaced threshold. The airplane then spun left and slid rearward on the ground until it contacted a chain-link fence.
The pilot reported that there were no mechanical anomalies with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation. The pilot’s statement, along with a ground-based video of the accident, revealed that the pilot failed to maintain adequate airspeed and exceeded the airplane’s critical angle of attack during the base to final turn, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall.
Probable Cause: The pilot’s failure to maintain adequate airspeed during the base to final turn and his exceedance of the airplane’s critical angle of attack, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall.

Oddly a smooth crash
Handled like a boss
I remember seeing a Challenger off the opposite side of the Ultralight runway that year, and thinking - does that thing not have a tail?
Like a glove!
Flying beyond their abilty. Poor pattern work.
Interesting...she has 300 hours in this make/model alone, and almost 1000 total hours in different aircraft. And sill makes such a silly mistake.
HER ability. It was a woman, not a crowd.
Who was more disturbed, the guy flying or the guy tenting?
Looks like one wing stalled while the other was in ground effect.
Source of original video?
Never mind. It's an EAA video.
A bigger field and there might not have even been any damage!
Took a lot of skill to land backwards.
Practice those maneuver with R/C first
Don't see a lot of aileron or rudder.
because when you are stalled that makes it worse.
Pilot handled it like a boss
A passenger-boss perhaps?
Except for the part in the video where he crashed.

@@saito125 Now you're being sexist. Everyone knows that women never crash.
(Handled it like a boss) ? You must be kidding, right? Poor judgement and pilot skills. Too slow, too much bank, too low to recover.
