The pilot reported that, while landing, the airplane bounced, and he elected to go-around. After applying full power and retracting the flap to 10° during the initial climb, he did not recall the airspeed. Subsequently, the airplane aerodynamically stalled and impacted terrain.

The airplane sustained substantial damage to the fuselage, both wings and empennage.

The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.

A witness at the airport, reported that, "his angle of attack was so high, there was no way it was going to fly. It was full power and looked like full aft yoke."

The airport's automated weather observation station reported that, about the time of the accident, the wind was from 240° at 4 knots. The pilot was landing the airplane on runway 23.
