The pilot over flew the strip to move the sheep aside but they flocked at the end so he flew over them. He failed to apply sufficient power, and the aircraft stalled during the flare on the steep up-hill slope and hit the ground. The nosewheel was torn of f and the propeller destroyed. A tail wind also contributed to this accident.
