Accident Sequence
Two pilot witnesses observed the accident. The aircraft stalled during takeoff after it had climbed to an estimated altitude of 75 to 100 feet above ground level. At that point, the aircraft executed a wing-over maneuver, entered a dive, and subsequently impacted the ground. The engine was reportedly operating at full power until the moment of impact.
Aircraft and Conditions
The aircraft was reportedly loaded to near its maximum gross weight limit at the time of the accident. The airport elevation was 3,052 feet, and the ambient temperature was 67 degrees Fahrenheit. No other environmental conditions were specified.
Investigation
Post-accident examination found no evidence of a preimpact failure of the airframe or the engine. The investigation did not identify any mechanical or structural anomalies that would have contributed to the loss of control.
