PRIOR TO THE ACCIDENT, THE ACFT WAS OBSERVED IN AEROBATIC TYPE MANEUVERS. ACCORDING TO ONE WITNESS, HE SAW THE ACFT ENTER A DESCENT AFTER IT HAD COMPLETED A ROLL MANEUVER. IT WAS STILL IN A STEEP DESCENT WHEN HE LOST SIGHT OF THE ACFT DUE TO TREES. THE ACFT IMPACTED WITH TREES IN A WOODED AREA WHILE STILL DESCENDING AT A SHALLOW ANGLE. THE TREES WERE UP TO 45 FT TALL. THE DISTANCE FROM THE INITIAL IMPACT POINT WITH THE TREES TO THE LAST PIECE OF DEBRIS WAS 511 FT.
