Summary:

During the takeoff roll on grass Runway 19, the aircraft went over a 鈥渉ump鈥� in the runway at an airspeed of about 40 kt and became airborne. The pilot reported that, as the aircraft was 鈥渂elow flying speed鈥�, he reduced the pitch attitude slightly, but the aircraft鈥檚 nose continued to drop and, upon contact with the runway, the nosewheel detached. The aircraft came to a stop shortly after (Figure 1) and the pilot shut down the engine. Both occupants were uninjured.
