Lake Hood Beaver Crash

Link to you tube video of crash

No one was injured.

The accident report sanguinely states: "AIRCRAFT ON TAKEOFF STRUCK A FENCE AND CRASHED, ANCHORAGE, AK", so I'll be interested to see what the NTSB final says. Probably just pilot error, but maybe it was heavy, too.

I'm not going to second guess - it's bad enough what happened. Obviously SOME mistake was made... lol. Poor guy - bad luck having the videographer there (unlesss they were together?).

What ever happened, it's a real shame to mess up a beautiful bird like that...
