A Swearingen SA226-TC operated by SkyCare, was operating a flight from Thunder Bay (CYQT), ON to Toronto/Lester B Pearson Intl (CYYZ), ON.
During the takeoff roll on Runway 07, the aircraft veered to the right and the main RH landing gear tires ran into the berm of snow on the inside of the runway. The propeller remained clear of the snow and the crew managed to stop the aircraft while still on the runway surface. It was noticed that the right propeller’s start-lock was still engaged. There was no damage to the aircraft or injuries to the crew or passengers. The start lock was disengaged, aircraft was backtracked to the threshold, and was re-cleared for takeoff on the same runway. The flight continued without further incident.
