Read the full NTSB narrative

THE PILOT STATED THAT THE AIRCRAFT STARTED TO PORPOISE ON TAKEOFF, SO HE ABORTED THE TAKEOFF. HE NOTED THAT HE CUT THE POWER COMPLETELY WHEN THE AIRCRAFT WAS FOUR TO FIVE FEET OFF THE RUNWAY, AND IT CAME DOWN NOSE FIRST, BLOWING THE NOSE TIRE, COLLAPSING THE NOSE LANDING GEAR, AND SLIDING OFF THE SIDE OF THE RUNWAY.
