| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot reported that during the takeoff ground run, he was momentarily distracted by looking in the cockpit and away from the airstrip, when the airplane suddenly veered to the left. The pilot tried to correct with braking action which exaggerated the left turn. The pilot was unable to regain control of the airplane before it exited the side of the runway and nosed over in the soft soil. There was no evidence found of a mechanical failure or malfunction.
Probable Cause: Directional control was not maintained. Diverted attention was a factor.
