The aircraft, a Boeing PT-27 Stearman, impacted airport terrain adjacent to the runway shortly after takeoff from Brandon Municipal Airport (McGill Field) (YBR/CYBR), Brandon, Manitoba. The aircraft sustained unreported damage and the two occupants onboard received serious injuries.
TSB says that one of the plane's propeller blades broke off, at its base. That caused a severe vibration that broke the plane's engine off of its mounts. Investigators say that the engine fell off during flight.
