| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot departed for the flight without a current medical certificate or flight review. After reaching his destination, the pilot performed a landing on a hard packed dirt road. During a subsequent takeoff attempt from the road, the pilot lost directional control of the aircraft and veered off the road surface. The aircraft impacted terrain adjacent to the road. The pilot reported that no mechanical failure or malfunction was involved, and a post-accident inspection of the aircraft revealed no indication of mechanical failure.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain directional control during the attempted takeoff. A related factor was the pilot's lack of recent experience.
