| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot reported that, during the approach, the airspeed was about 80 knots, but the airplane was slightly high. The airplane floated down the runway further than normal before it touched down. When the pilot determined that he would not have enough runway to stop the airplane, he aborted the landing. The airplane did not climb as he expected, and it subsequently impacted trees. The pilot added that he believed that the reason the airplane failed to climb was due to his failure to retract the flaps to 50%. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the left wing. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: The pilot's inadequate approach, delayed decision to abort the landing, and failure to properly configure the flap setting for the initial climb during the attempted aborted landing, which resulted in impact with trees.
