Narrative:Failed to gain height on takeoff. The airplane touched down 60 m past the runway end and crossed a road into a field.
Causes:
The accident can be attributed to the fact that after take-off, the aircraft gained little altitude and the pilot aborted the initial climb. This is most likely attributed to an inappropriate take-off technique combined with take-off mass at the maximum per-missible limits. When rolling to a stop in open terrain, the aircraft was severely damaged.
The following factors contributed to the accident:
- An inoperative stall warning system.
- The absence of take-off performance calculation data.
