The pilot said he was landing with a right gusting crosswind, which had a slight tailwind component. During the landing roll, a gust of wind lifted his 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.
The pilot did not maintain directional control during the landing roll.
