Incident Overview
The pilot of an aircraft reported that there were no mechanical malfunctions during the flight. The incident occurred during takeoff on runway 6. The pilot stated that winds were from 340 degrees at 20 knots, with gusts to 25 knots.
Sequence of Events
Just after liftoff, the aircraft began drifting to the right. The pilot reported that he could not correct the ground track before the aircraft collided with a chain link fence that borders the airport. The fence was located approximately 60 feet from the edge of the runway.
Pilot Report
The pilot explicitly stated that there were no mechanical issues with the aircraft. The reported wind conditions indicated a significant crosswind component for runway 6, which has a heading of approximately 060 degrees. The wind direction of 340 degrees would create a crosswind from the left, potentially causing the right drift observed.
