The passenger, who was a student pilot, reported that the pilot was going to do a 'slow fly-by' at the private airstrip. He further reported that as the airplane came over a wooded area, 'we encountered what was evidently [a] left wing stall. We spun into the wooded area, and impacted the ground. Prior to the stall everything seemed normal.' The airplane owner reported that the wind was from the south at 6 to 8 mph. No structural or mechanical anomalies were observed during an examination of the airplane.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain minimum required airspeed for flight, which resulted in an inadvertent stall.
