Read the full NTSB narrative

ON AN APCH TO LAND, AFTER A GO-AROUND, THE ACFT CROSSED OVER WIRES & TOUCHED DOWN ON THE 1ST HALF OF THE RWY. THE PLT APPLIED BRAKES ON THE WET GRASS RWY, BUT NOTED A LACK OF BRAKING ACTION. HE APPLIED POWER TO GO AROUND, BUT DECIDED THE ACFT WOULD NOT CLEAR THE TREES, SO HE ABORTED THE GO-AROUND. THE ACFT WENT OFF THE END OF THE RWY & CAME TO REST IN A WOODED RAVINE.
