Visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the time of the incident. The title 14 CFR part 91 flight had been operating on an IFR flight plan. The pilot and passenger reported no injuries. The flight originated at leesburg municipal airport, leesburg, VA. After a preliminary investigation of the incident, airman competence is considered a factor in the cause of the incident.
