What happened
According to multiple witnesses, an aircraft was flying from south to north over runway 31. One witness reported that the aircraft was traveling at a relatively slow speed at approximately 150 feet above ground level. During the flight, the aircraft performed a hard pull-up and entered a right bank. Other observers noted that the aircraft reached an 80 to 90 degree bank angle to the right before descending below the tree line.
The main wreckage was discovered directly beneath power lines. The impact or subsequent movement caused a power pole, situated 430 feet west of the aircraft, to break, and the northern power line was left resting on the ground.
