Factual narrative

DURING A DUAL INSTRUCTIONAL FLIGHT FOR THE PURPOSE OF PRACTICING TAKEOFFS AND LANDINGS WITH A PRE-SOLO STUDENT, THE INSTRUCTOR PILOT FAILED TO MAINTAIN ADEQUATE AIRCRAFT CONTROL AND VISUAL LOOKOUT, AND THE AIRCRAFT DEPARTED THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE RUNWAY, STRUCK A FENCE AND CAME TO A STOP IN A CORNFIELD. THE PILOT REPORTED A 10 KNOT LEFT CROSSWIND AND THAT RESTRICTED VISIBILITY DUE TO SUNGLARE WAS A FACTOR. Source: NTSB Aviation Accident Database (Pre-2008 Archive) Retrieved: 2026-02-12
