Event Description
The pilot reported that he had departed from the private airstrip on two previous agricultural aerial application flights. During the next takeoff roll, the airplane veered to the left when it passed the center crown in the runway. He reported that the main wheel "caught" a deep rut at the runway edge. The airplane then went off the runway and the left wing impacted a cornfield, which spun the airplane around.
Damage
The landing gear, propeller, and empennage sustained substantial damage as a result of the ground impact and spin.
Airport Information
The airport used by the pilot was a privately owned, paved airstrip used only by agricultural spray aircraft. No other details about the location or operator were provided.
