The aircraft took off normally, but a short time after passing over the end of the airstrip encountered sink. This resulted in the righthand main undercarriage leg contacting an elevated spot of ground and breaking off. The underside mirror showed the leg and wheel had been removed cleanly with no trailing parts or aircraft damage. The load was spread and the aircraft landed back at Masterton with out further incident.
