N6741S

On August 22, 2005, about 0945 eastern daylight time, a Cessna 152, N67415, registered to and operated by Delta Connection Academy, lost control during landing and flipped over at the Orlando Sanford International Airport, Orlando, Florida. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the time and no flight plan was filed for the Title 14 CFR Part 91 instructional flight. The student pilot received minor injuries and the airplane incurred substantial damage. The flight had originated from the same airport, earlier that day, about 0815.

The pilot stated, the approach for the full stop landing was uneventful. On final, about 10 feet above the ground, with engine power reduced and the airplane in a landing configuration, a gust of wind from the left blew the airplane to the right. The right main tire touched down hard followed by the left main tire. As the airplane bounced down the runway, he attempted a go-around. He added full engine power, and pitched the airplane's nose up. The left wing hit the ground and the airplane flipped over coming to a stop upside-down. The pilot stated there were no mechanical failures or malfunctions to the airplane or any of its systems prior to the accident.
