Incident Overview
A dual instructional flight involving a student pilot with 11 hours of flight experience ended in a collision with ground objects after a loss of control during takeoff. The student was performing the takeoff when the incident occurred.
Sequence of Events
The flight instructor reported that the student rotated the aircraft at 50 knots. After the aircraft accelerated to 60 knots, it began a roll to the right, and the instructor stated that aileron control was lost. The aircraft then started to sink at an altitude of approximately 30 to 40 feet above ground level. The instructor added full power in an attempt to recover, but the aircraft impacted the ground on its wheels. Following the impact, the aircraft slid into two parked aircraft, a truck, and other ground structures.
Post-Accident Examination
An FAA airworthiness inspector examined the aircraft and the control system. The inspection revealed no discrepancies that could have contributed to the loss of control.
Pilot Experience
The certified flight instructor (CFI) involved had obtained his flight instructor certificate two months prior to the accident. At the time of the incident, he had accumulated 33 hours as a flight instructor and 290 total flight hours.
