| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot stated that the grass runway was wet and he did not walk the length of the runway before takeoff. During the takeoff roll he noted increased drag, but continued the takeoff, and due to insufficient speed to become airborne and remaining runway, he aborted the takeoff. The airplane skidded off the runway, contacted a road, became airborne, then touched down in a field and nosed over. The pilot further stated that he should have aborted the takeoff earlier.
Probable Cause: The pilot's delay in aborting a takeoff from a wet grass runway.
