Narrative:The Dornier Do 28A-1, N123CA was substantially damaged at Spanhoe Airfield when the wing grazed a tree during a go-around.
The pilot briefly lost directional control of the aircraft during a crosswind landing in gusty conditions, resulting in the aircraft leaving the side of the runway. The pilot regained control and aborted the landing, during which the aircraft clipped some saplings as it climbed away.
A functional check of the flying controls demonstrated no controllability issues, and the aircraft was flown back to the departure airfield. A post-flight examination of the aircraft by the pilot revealed damage to the left wing, right elevator and horizontal stabiliser.
