| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot stated that during climbout, after reaching about 10 feet above the ground, the airplane's engine lost power, then restarted. She further stated that the airplane had started dropping to the runway when it lost power, and it impacted the runway. One witness, an FAA licensed mechanic, with inspection authorization, stated that he heard and observed the takeoff, and the airplane lifted off about the mid-length of the runway, and had ascended to an altitude of about 10 feet, prior to descending and impacting the runway with a loud popping sound. He said that after the impact, a go-around was executed, followed by an uneventful landing. The mechanic said that engine sounded normal, as if it had been developing full power the whole time, with the only a slight fluctuation in sound that corresponded with the propeller strike. The mechanic further stated that he conducted a post accident examination of the aircraft found that it had incurred substantial damage. The mechanic further stated that he found no preexisting problems with the aircraft that would have caused the accident.
Probable Cause: the pilot's failure to maintain adequate airspeed during the takeoff/initial climb, which resulted in an inadvertent stall/mush and collision with the runway that resulted in substantial damage to the airplane.
