Aircraft involved

Probable cause & findings

The pilot’s loss of control in the landing pattern resulting in an aerodynamic stall and impact with terrain.

Factual narrative

The pilot reported that he was performing touch and go landings when he stalled the airplane. The airplane departed controlled flight and impacted in a field near the airport and sustained substantial damage to the front of the fuselage and both wings. A post accident examination of the airplane showed no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operations.
