SYNOPSIS
The aircraft had descended for a landing on the westerly runway at Clonbullogue Airfield after a routine parachute-drop flight. On short finals, with a southerly wind, the aircraft sank below the normal visual profile; the Pilot applied power to attempt recovery, but was unable to prevent contact with the boundary hedge before landing. The aircraft was substantially damaged by contact with a wooden fence post, which was embedded in the hedge. The Pilot, the sole occupant at the time, was unhurt. There was no fire.
