Read the full NTSB narrative

AFTER TAKEOFF, THE PILOT TURNED TO THE LEFT, BUT THEN HE WAS UNABLE TO CLEAR TREES WHILE CLIMBING OVER RISING TERRAIN. A WITNESS THAT SAW THE PLANE TURN AFTER TAKEOFF STATED THAT MOST AIRPLANES CONTINUE CLIMBING OVER A NEARBY LAKE AND GAIN ALTITUDE BEFORE TURNING. THE DENSITY ALTITUDE WAS ABOUT 4300 FT.
