Read the full NTSB narrative

THE ACFT STALLED, SPUN AND COLLIDED WITH TREES DURING AN ATTEMPTED GO-AROUND. THE PILOT HAD FLOWN LOCALLY FOR ABOUT 1 HOUR DOING STALLS AND TOUCH AND GO LANDINGS. THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED FOLLOWING A LANDING THAT WAS PLANNED AS A FULL STOP LANDING. THE LANDING WAS FAST AND THE ACFT TOUCHED DOWN AFTER USING ABOUT ONE THIRD OF THE RUNWAY. THE PILOT WAS HOLDING THE NOSE UP TO DISSIPATE SPEED. WITH ABOUT 1000 FEET OF RUNWAY LEFT THE ACFT BECAME AIRBORNE AGAIN AND THE PILOT ABORTED THE LANDING. FULL POWER WAS APPLIED AND THE FLAPS WERE RAISED. THE ACFT CLEARED OBSTACLES AT THE END OF THE RUNWAY BUT LOST AIRSPEED IN DOING SO AND SPUN RIGHT INTO TREES AND THE GROUND.
