Accident Details
The aircraft was on landing approach when it made contact with the runway with excessive height and speed. This resulted in the aircraft bouncing several times. The pilot attempted to recover by adding power and aborting the landing.
Pilot Actions
During the go-around, the pilot did not apply right rudder, which caused the aircraft to veer to the left. Additionally, the pilot did not retract the flaps, preventing the aircraft from climbing above several feet above ground level. The pilot also failed to remove carburetor heat.
Outcome
While at a low altitude and veering left, the aircraft contacted several small trees alongside the runway. Subsequently, it struck the terrain. The aircraft sustained damage consistent with a collision with trees and terrain.
