Witnesses observed the aircraft maneuvering at a low altitude. The aircraft entered a steep bank, stalled, and descended uncontrolled until ground impact. Postcrash examination of the aircraft structure and flight controls showed no evidence of precrash failure or malfunction. The propeller had bending and chordwise scratching damage indicative of being turned by engine power at the time of ground impact.
