The Cessna departed runway 27 at Cincinnati (CVG) and climbed to 300 to 400 feet above the runway. It was at an airspeed of 120 knots, when it became abnormally heavy on the flight controls, and very unstable about its lateral axis (pitch control). The pilot elected to reduce the throttle to idle and perform the rejected takeoff procedure. The airplane touched down on snow covered grass approximately 85 feet off the left side of the runway, and 262 feet beyond the 7,000-foot runway marker. The airplane came to rest approximately 315 feet off the left side of the runway, and 460 feet prior to the 9,000-foot runway marker. The airplane's landing gear collapsed, and the fuselage was buckled near the aft end of the cargo pod. Photographs taken by airport personnel shortly after the accident revealed areas of frost present on the wings and empennage. In addition, ice was observed on portions of the leading edges of the left and right wings.
PROBABLE CAUSE: "The pilot's inadequate pre-flight inspection, which resulted in a decrease in airplane performance due to ice, and a subsequent hard landing."
