Read the full NTSB narrative
THE PILOT WAS SPRAYING A FIELD OF COTTON, AND WAS IN A TURNAROUND WHEN THE AIRPLANE DESCENDED TO THE GROUND. THE AUTOPSY INDICATED THE PILOT DIED OF ACUTE CORONARY THROMBOSIS. ALTHOUGH TOX RESULTS INDICATE THE PRESENCE OF ALCOHOL IN THE PILOT'S BLOOD, THE SAMPLE WAS PUTRIFIED. NO ALCOHOL WAS FOUND IN THE URINE. BECAUSE THE BLOOD SAMPLE WAS PUTRIFIED, THE RELATIONSHIP OF ALCOHOL TO THE ACCIDENT CAUSE COULD NOT BE ESTABLISHED.
