NTSB accident and incident record under N7690E

CHI04CA160Accident on June 20, 2004 at Carmi, IL: minor injuries, substantial damage.

Aircraft on the NTSB record: Champion 7FC · serial 7FC-285

The pilot's failure to maintain directional control during the takeoff roll, his decision to continue the takeoff when the aircraft had left the runway surface, and his selection of unsuitable terrain for the continued takeoff. An additional cause was the pilot's failure to maintain clearance to the terrain during the initial climb. Contributing factors were the wheat field "stubble" (high vegetation) and the ditch.
