Crashed.
There was one minor injury. The accident occurred at the Vaughan Ranch Airfield Airport (WN13) Port Orchard, WA, United States while taking off. The damage was substantial. The pilot reported that he performed several engine runs prior to departure as the airplane had not flown in approximately 15 months.
