A pilotless Cessna 172 Skyhawk crashed into a solar field after briefly becoming airborne at Kamenz Airfeld, Germany.
The pilot tried to start the engine by manually spinning the prop. It seems the parking brakes were not set and the airplane moved forward It gained speed until it became airborne before impacting the solar field located next to the airfield.
