Accident Overview
A pilot conducting multiple takeoffs and full stop landings in the airport traffic pattern attempted a touch and go landing. During the landing, the pilot did not retract the flaps fully after touchdown. The airplane became airborne prematurely at an airspeed too low to sustain controlled flight. As the pilot attempted to lower the nose to gain airspeed, the left wingtip contacted the ground, causing the airplane to spin to the right. The propeller dug into the turf just off the runway, and the airplane came to rest inverted in a ditch.
Aircraft Damage
The accident resulted in substantial damage to the fuselage. The pilot reported no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions that would have precluded normal operation.
Investigation Findings
The investigation did not specify the aircraft type, registration, engine count, date, operator, location, number of occupants, or injuries. The time of day, weather conditions, and ATC involvement were not stated. The probable cause, as derived from the source, is the pilot's failure to fully retract the flaps and subsequent premature takeoff at too low an airspeed, leading to a loss of control. No toxicology tests or determination of fatalities were mentioned.
