Accident Overview
A pilot departed from a private airstrip to conduct an aerial application flight. Visual flight rules (VFR) conditions prevailed, and no flight plan was filed. The pilot stated that after completing a spray run to the west, he pulled up to a 15-degree nose-high attitude at 150 feet above ground level (AGL). He then initiated a right bank followed by a left bank of 40 degrees.
Flight Details
During the left turn, the pilot was lowering the nose and extending the flaps. The airplane stalled during this maneuver, resulting in an uncontrolled descent. The aircraft subsequently collided with terrain.
Stall and Descent
The sequence of events—completing a spray run, pulling up, and executing banked turns—led to the stall. The stall occurred while the pilot was simultaneously lowering the nose and extending flaps. No further details about the aircraft type, registration, or occupant status were provided in the source.
