Read the full NTSB narrative

AS THE ACFT PROCEEDED ON TAKEOFF DOWN THE RWY, IT EXITED THE RWY ON THE LEFT SIDE OVER A BERM INTO A WIDE SHALLOW DITCH AREA, THEN ABOUT 122 FEET LATER THE ACFT TRAVELED BACK OVER THE BERM ONTO THE RWY AND TOOK OFF. THE NOSE THEN PITCHED UP, THE ACFT BANKED LEFT AND STALLED. ACCORDING TO THE MEDICAL EXAMINER, 'THE AUTOPSY REVEALED THAT THE PILOT HAD SEVERE CORONARY DISEASE AND WAS EXPERIENCING A HEART ATTACK AT THE TIME OF TAKEOFF.'
