The pilot was on the first sortie of the day, when he noted that the windsock was indicating calm conditions and so requested a lighter load from the loader driver. Acceleration was slower than expected during the takeoff, so he checked the position of his brakes and park brake as possible reasons for this. On leaving the airstrip, the aircraft sank at an alarming rate. The pilot initiated a jettison and applied more flap, but the aircraft collided with a ridge to the left of the airstrip.
