Default Bonanza crash caught on video

In an amazing coincidence, a Sacramento TV station was at Cameron Park
airport filming background for a story about the crash of a plane that
had departed earlier in the day and caught a second crash on video. Go
to the web site and click on "Cameron Park Plane Crash" on the right
side.

It sure looks like the pilot was taking off from a high-density
altitude airport with no flaps, downwind.

Just looking at the video, it did not look like he kept his right boot
firmly enough on the rudder pedal. This is in addition to the possible
issues of gross weight, mixture, and direction of takeoff which were
previously mentioned.
