Sequence of events
NTSB’s coding before 2008: each occurrence and phase of flight, and the causes and factors under it. The codes are defined in NTSB’s coding manual.
Analysis
The plt stated that the eng always ran rough at full pwr due to a rich mixture setting on the carburetor. Normally the eng roughness could be corrected by retarding the throttle or mixture control. The plt said that he adjusted the mixture on the carburetor one turn towards lean prior to the accident flt. After 30 minutes of flt, the plt attempted a touch and go landing. On initial climb from the landing, the eng failed. To avoid a highway at the end of the rwy, the plt made a right turn in an attempt to return to the arpt. The acft then stalled and descended to ground impact. The plts flt time was not reported or available.
