| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot of the agricultural airplane attempted an aborted landing without releasing the load of agricultural applicant, which had not been dispensed due to a failure of the spray system. During the initial climb after the aborted landing, the airplane stalled and impacted terrain. The pilot's safety recommendation was: "There is a dump lever....use it !!!" The pilot did not have a current flight review nor did he hold an aircraft operator certificate for agricultural operations.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to release the load of agricultural product before the landing approach and his failure to maintain aircraft control during an initial climb after an aborted landing, which resulted in the airplane exceeding its critical angle of attack and experiencing an aerodynamic stall.
