well, at least no injuries. I like the paint on this one. apparently, he made it to Oshkosh at least once, and it's tied down properly with a proper cover. he is not a slouch. what happened to the aircraft in-between that caused it to go down? where did he go wrong?

A Vans RV-9A, N748PK, sustained minor damage in an apparent forced landing shortly after takeoff from Byron Airport (C83), Byron, California. The pilot and passenger were not injured.
ADS-B data shows that the airplane departed runway 23 and entered a climbing left turn towards 2000 ft. About two minutes later, the airplane conducted a left turn and flew to the northeast. About three minutes later, the airplane started a descent and conducted a 180 turn before it landed in a field roughly 2 miles from the airport.
