The aircraft struck a powerline during an aerial spraying operation. Although it remained airborne, the rudder and vertical stabiliser were damaged and the pilot had difficulty maintaining directional control. He did not commence a load dump and continued to fly straight ahead until a suitable landing area became available. During the approach for landing, the aircraft encountered a crosswind, causing it to weathercock and collide with trees.
