NTSB narrative
THE ACFT WENT OFF THE END OF THE RWY DURING AN ABORTED TAKEOFF AFTER THE ENGINE BACKFIRED AND RAN ROUGH. THE PLT CLOSED THE THROTTLE AS HE DISCONTINUED THE TAKEOFF. BEFORE THE ACFT COULD BE STOPPED IT WENT OFF THE RWYS END AND DOWN AN EMBANKMENT. POST ACCIDENT EXAMINATION OF THE SPARK PLUGS SHOWED THEM TO BE WORN AND DIRTY WITH CARBON. THE LAST ANNUAL INSPECTION WAS ON 1/21/83. THIS FLT WAS A DUAL INSTRUCTIONAL FLT TO PREPARE THE PRIVATE PLT FOR AN INSTRUMENT CHECK.

- Unreviewed is an editorial label, not an investigation status. API-sourced is not report-checked or human-reviewed. Explicit event totals are used without summing aircraft injury tables; onboard allocation is withheld. Unknown values remain unknown. The operation category is mapped from the NTSB-reported FAR part and has not been reviewed.
- Filled from the NTSB case API where the bulk record had no value: investigation status. Values present in the bulk record are kept.
- The date is the local date, which is the same as the UTC date the NTSB stores.
