The turbine powered airplane was registered to and operated by Payne Flying Service of Pelahatchie, Mississippi. The commercial pilot, sole occupant of the airplane, was not injured. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed and a flight plan was not filed for the 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 137 aerial application flight.

The pilot reported that during the 18th flight of the day from the airstrip, the engine lost partial power during the takeoff roll.
