Incident Overview
A pilot flying a single-engine aircraft conducted a VOR/DME-B approach to an airport and subsequently cancelled the instrument flight rules (IFR) flight plan. During the final approach to Runway 36, the pilot observed that the aircraft was positioned to the right of the runway centerline.
Sequence of Events
After noticing the offset, the pilot initiated a go-around. During the climb, the pilot began a right turn after passing a tree that was observed to the right of the aircraft. While turning, the pilot realized the aircraft was heading toward a utility pole, transformer, and associated wires. An attempt was made to pull up, but the aircraft struck a utility wire and subsequently impacted the terrain beyond the utility infrastructure.
