Circumstances:
At the end of the afternoon, following uneventful spraying missions, the crew decided to embark an illegal passenger, an employee from a local state farm. While flying at low height, the pilot-in-command initiated a turn when the aircraft stalled and crashed, bursting into flames. The passenger was injured and both pilots were killed.
