Narrative:Shortly after takeoff the airplane rolled to the left. Attempts to control the left roll were unsuccessful, and the airplane rolled to about a 90 degree left roll, descended, and crashed. Postaccident examination of the airplane by an FAA inspector disclosed no evidence of precrash failure or malfunction of the flight control system. The pilot stated he believed he encountered wake turbulence from a corporate jet which departed ahead of him.
Probable Cause: The failure of the pilot to follow appropriate wake turbulence avoidance procedures, and wait an adequate amount of time prior to taking off behind a corporate jet.
