Narrative:

Incident occurred at conclusion of flight from livingston, mt to aurora, il with interim stops at mitchell and sioux falls, sd. Departure from livingston at BG08Z, arrival at aurora at approximately AB45Z. On rollout, aircraft (small aircraft) swerved right. Incorrect control input resulted in ground loop. No structural damage to aircraft, no injuries, no property damage. Wing tip wa scraped and cracked. Landing on runway 36. Wind was 040 degrees and 6 KTS. Speed was slow. Factors affecting human performance: length of flight and return to home airport led to premature relaxation when landing was made. Result was slow/inappropriate reaction on rollout.
