Reims Cessna F152, G-BHNA
Summary:
皇冠体育app pilot had planned to depart on a local flight from Breighton Airfield. 皇冠体育app weather conditions were good, with broken cloud at around 2,500 ft. 皇冠体育app surface wind varied in direction between 360潞 and 040潞 at 7 to 8 kt. 皇冠体育app pilot carried out his pre-departure checks and after checking the windsock lined up on Runway 11, a grass runway 852 m (2,795 ft) in length and 45 m (148 ft) width. As the aircraft accelerated along the runway the pilot applied into wind aileron and right rudder to counter the crosswind. 皇冠体育app aircraft started to lift off and as it did so it yawed to the left then touched down again; it was now heading towards the side of the runway. 皇冠体育app pilot closed the throttle but before he could commence braking the aircraft left the side of the runway and went into a ploughed field. 皇冠体育app nose pitched down and the aircraft flipped over coming to rest upside down. 皇冠体育app pilot and passenger were not injured in the accident and were able to evacuate the aircraft unassisted. 皇冠体育app pilot ascribed the accident to the effect of a crosswind gust just as the aircraft lifted off the ground.
