## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

(-23) AT ABOUT 1030 AM ON SATURDAY THE 16TH OF JUNE THE PILOT WAS DEPARTING THE WINSTON FIELD FLY-IN ON RUNWAY 17, THE AWOS READ 31 DEGREES CENTIGRADE AND 14 KNOTS OF WIND FROM THE SOUTH. THE PILOT WAS FLYING A HORTON STOL KIT EQUIPPED CE-182 AND DURING CLIMB-OUT THE WIND SUBSIDED CAUSING A LOSS OF LIFT.  THE PILOT LOWERED THE NOSE BUT COULD NOT REGAIN ENOUGH AIRSPEED TO RECOVER THE TAKE-OFF.  THE AIRCRAFT DESCENDED TO THE RUNWAY IN A NOSE LOW ATTITUDE COLLAPSING THE NOSE GEAR, CAUSING A PROP STRIKE AND BENDING THE LEFT MAIN LANDING GEAR LEG.  THERE WERE NO INJURIES TO THE PILOT OR THE PASSENGER.  A WITNESS CONFIRMS THAT THE 14 KNOT WIND JUST STOPPED BLOWING, PROBABLY FROM THE FORMATION OF AN EARLY MORNING THERMAL.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
