Read the full NTSB narrative
THE ACFT COLLIDED WITH THE GROUND AFTER THE PILOT LOST CONTROL OF IT DURING TAKEOFF. THE FLT STARTED AS AN AIR TAXI OPERATION BUT WHEN THE PILOT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL IN 2 TAKEOFF ATTEMPTS HE OFF LOADED HIS PASSENGERS UNTO ANOTHER ACFT. THIS STOL MODIFIED ACFT BECAME UNCONTROLLABLE AS THE PILOT ATTEMPTED A THIRD TAKEOFF ALONE. WHEN THE ACFT HIT THE GROUNDTHE NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED. THE PILOT STATED THAT MORE EMPHASIS SHOULD BE GIVEN TO LOW SPEED OPERATION OF MODIFIED ACFT.
