A Grumman Ag Cat crashed field near Romanovskaya. The pilot, a Canadian citizen, received minor injuries.
According to the commission's conclusion, the most likely cause of the aircraft's collision with the ground during a flight with maximum take-off weight was the discrepancy between the available power on the engine shaft and that required for horizontal flight due to incorrect adjustment of the ignition timing of the gas distribution mechanism.
The accident was caused by:
• assembly and maintenance of aircraft by non-certified specialists;
• aircraft maintenance without the availability of appropriate operational documentation.
Based on the results of the investigation, recommendations were developed to improve flight safety.
