Factual narrative

THE AIRCRAFT WAS OBSERVED TAKING OFF ON RUNWAY 14 UNDER A 700 FT CEILING. IT CLIMBED TO ABOUT 100 FT AGL, AND WHILE STILL OVER THE RUNWAY, IT BEGAN A LEFT TURN AND STARTED LOSING ALTITUDE. THE PILOT REPORTED THAT DURING THE TAKEOFF, HE HAD THROTTLED BACK AND TURNED NORTH. HE STATED THAT HE NOTICED HE WAS LOW AND ADDED POWER, BUT DID NOT REMEMBER ANYTHING AFTER THAT. HE BELIEVED THAT THE PLANE STALLED AND BEGAN TO SPIN. THE AIRCRAFT CRASHED IN A MARSH ABOUT 1/4 MILE NORTHEAST OF THE AIRPORT. AN EXAMINATION OF THE ENGINE REVEALED NO PREIMPACT MALFUNCTION OR FAILURE. Source: NTSB Aviation Accident Database (Pre-2008 Archive) Retrieved: 2026-02-12
