Narrative:
At approximately XA30, I was on final to land on runway 27 at ldj. Winds were nwesternly to northerly, and I was crabbing the airplane on final to maintain the runway centerline. I recall maintaining 85 mph on short final. At about 25 ft above the runway surface, I encountered windshear, and the airplane stalled. In the crabbed position, the nosewheel touched the runway surface hard enough to bend the wheel axle.

Narrative: AT APPROX XA30, I WAS ON FINAL TO LAND ON RWY 27 AT LDJ. WINDS WERE NWESTERNLY TO NORTHERLY, AND I WAS CRABBING THE AIRPLANE ON FINAL TO MAINTAIN THE RWY CTRLINE. I RECALL MAINTAINING 85 MPH ON SHORT FINAL. AT ABOUT 25 FT ABOVE THE RWY SURFACE, I ENCOUNTERED WINDSHEAR, AND THE AIRPLANE STALLED.
