The pilot of the tailwheel equipped airplane reported that the final approach was stable; however, the winds were gusting according to the automated wind report he received during the approach to the airport. The airplane touched down on the runway centerline, and when the airplane’s tail came down, the airplane immediately began a left turn and the right wing began to lift. The pilot attempted to correct with rudder and aileron inputs along with brakes; however, the left wing tip contacted the runway and the airplane exited the right side of the runway. The left main landing gear separated, and the airplane came to rest on the edge of the runway. The left wing and fuselage sustained substantial damage. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation. At the time of the accident, the pilot was landing the airplane on runway 36 with variable winds from 030° to 040° at 18 knots and gusting to 23 knots. The pilot stated the accident could have been prevented if he would have chosen to use the turf runway that was oriented more directly into the wind.
