Aircraft damage: Substantial
Category:Accident
Location:Grenå (EKGR) -   Denmark
Phase: Take off
Nature:Private
Departure airport:Grenaa Airfield (EKGR)
Destination airport:Anholt Airfield (EKAT)
Investigating agency: HCLJ Denmark
Narrative:
The aircraft started on runway 01 in Grenå (EKGR).
During the take-off, due to the current crosswind conditions, the pilot had difficulty maintaining directional control, and immediately after the pilot had brought the aircraft into the air and at low altitude, the aircraft suddenly and uncontrollably tilted to the right.
The AIB finds it overwhelmingly probable that strong and offensive crosswind conditions significantly above the aircraft's crosswind limit led to loss of control, and the aircraft crashed.
The accident happened in daylight and under visual weather conditions (VMC).
