Narrative:
During take-off for a trial flight, the aircraft was unable to gain sufficient altitude, touched the ground after the runway and overturned in a field.


The accident was due to the fact that the crew decided to perform the takeoff despite minor reserves regarding the takeoff roll distance and in the face of variable wind conditions. In doing so, the airplane was forced to take off at a speed that was too low. In this speed range, the available takeoff power was not sufficient to accelerate it or to bring it into a climb, so that an emergency landing became unavoidable.
The calculation of the takeoff roll distance under too optimistically assumed wind conditions contributed to the accident sequence
