Incident Details
A pilot reported that upon the initial indication of rain, he chose to take off from a harvested soybean field before the surface became muddy. The field was soft and approximately 2,100 feet long. Before the accident, the wind was from the south, so the pilot began his takeoff in that direction.
After lift-off, the pilot became concerned about trees ahead and initiated a shallow turn. During the turn, the aircraft began settling and subsequently collided with the ground. After the accident, it was noted that the wind had changed and was blowing from the north.
No further details regarding the aircraft, registration, operator, location, date, time, occupants, injuries, or damage were provided in the source. The report contains only the pilot's account of the events.
