Incident Overview
The airplane collided with a fence and a house during takeoff, according to the investigation. The pilot performed a normal run-up prior to departure, then added power for takeoff on the 1,600-foot-long dirt runway.
Takeoff Roll
During the takeoff roll, one of the airplane's wheels drifted into softer dirt on the edge of the runway. As a result, the airplane slowed. The pilot maneuvered the airplane back onto the runway and then realized that the aircraft was close to a barbed wire fence.
Collision Sequence
The pilot pulled back on the yoke in an attempt to clear the fence. However, the main tires struck the top wire of the fence. Shortly thereafter, the airplane impacted a nearby house.
Investigation Findings
The investigation noted the normal run-up, the 1,600-foot-long dirt runway, the wheel drift into softer dirt causing deceleration, the pilot's action of pulling back on the yoke, and the subsequent collisions with the fence and house. No further details were provided in the source.
