Lost control after takeoff, crashed into a forest just outside a fence around the airport and burst into flames. Preliminary investigation results indicate that the stabilizer spontaneously shifted to the full down (-12 degrees) position two seconds after takeoff. Six seconds after the shift, the captain tried to compensate by thrusting the control stick forward as far as possible, but he was unable to regain control of the aircraft.
