On February 9, 2008, approximately 1115 mountain daylight time, a Plochar SHA-Glasair, N315LP, registered to and operated by the pilot, was substantially damaged during a hard landing at Telluride Regional Airport (TEX), Telluride, Colorado. Visual meteorological conditions (VMC) prevailed at the time of the accident. ...
Unicom advised the pilot that the winds were from 260 degrees at 6 knots. He decided to land on runway 09 as per the airport's request to avoid flying over populated areas. He postponed dropping his flaps until he "had the runway made." This resulted in a 90 knot airspeed, "which is a little high," and he crossed the r...
