NTSB Factual Report

The pilot stated that during the takeoff roll on runway 32, the airplane "started going to the right." He applied "full" left rudder to correct, "but could not push back to the right."

Examination of the airplane by a Federal Aviation Administration inspector revealed no preexisting mechanical malfunctions or failures. Reported weather at the accident airport, about the time of the accident, included winds from 290 degrees at 9 knots.
