Incident Overview
A private pilot was landing a single-engine airplane on a 3,080-foot-long by 80-foot-wide asphalt runway. During the approach, the pilot made a higher than normal descent, resulting in a touchdown just beyond the runway numbers.
Landing and Abort
During the landing roll-out, the pilot retracted the flaps and applied brake pressure. Determining that the remaining runway length was insufficient to safely stop the airplane, the pilot aborted the landing.
Go-Around Attempt
After aborting the landing, the pilot added full power and attempted to take off again. However, the airplane did not achieve sufficient airspeed to maintain flight. It struck two trees, then flew approximately 200 feet before coming to rest on a parkway.
Aircraft Damage
The airplane's left and right wings sustained structural damage. The pilot reported that there were no mechanical deficiencies.
Summary
The incident involved a single-engine airplane attempting to land and then aborting, resulting in a collision with trees and a final resting place on a parkway. No injuries or fatalities were reported in the source.
