Circumstances
The accident occurred during a takeoff attempt from a grass runway. The runway featured an uphill gradient in the direction of travel. At the time of the takeoff run, a quartering tailwind was present.
Sequence of Events
The pilot elected to start the takeoff roll under the existing conditions. During the takeoff run, the pilot initiated a premature lift-off, raising the airplane off the runway surface before adequate airspeed was attained. Shortly afterward, the pilot attempted to return the airplane to the runway. The airplane settled back down, but it was not aligned with the runway direction. Control was subsequently lost, and the airplane nosed over.
Outcome
The airplane came to rest in a nose-over attitude. No further details regarding injuries or damage were provided in the source. The investigation did not assign a probable cause.
