Reports say "while taking off" so I ask, If it never got up can you say it went down?

Yeah, we had a delayed return this afternoon as they closed the airport for a bit. Glad it sounded like whoever was on board was ok.

Video here makes it pretty clear that all three gear were on the ground at the end of the runway and the plane flipped at a point beyond the runway end.

I wonder if the "THIS AIRCRAFT NOT APPROVED FOR GROUND LEVEL AEROBATICS" placard was affixed to the instrument panel in full view of the pilot," as per NOTE 37 (a) III...

Maybe it identifies as a low wing?

A few more angles from takeoff this morning. You can see the heavy tire marks pretty clearly.

Pretty pic of a bad scene.
I was wondering but I see now he was on the "short"(3800') runway.
I haven't seen it on a big enough screen, is that the nose wheel still attached but folded back and over to the left side? Did he try to turn and that made it dig in...

I think the nose gear fork is gone completely. Doesn't look like a hard turn effort to me.
