DISTRACTED BY AN INTERRUPTION IN TAXI AND DEPARTURE ROUTINES, THE PILOT RESET HIS ALTITUDE ALERT CONTROLLER TO TWO HUNDRED FEET INSTEAD OF TWO THOUSAND FEET, HIS AMMENDED CLEARANCE ALTITUDE. TAKING OFF ON INSTRUMENTS IN THE DENSE MORNING FOG, THE ALERT SYSTEM COMMANDED A LEVEL-OFF AND THE AIRCRAFT COLLIDED WITH TREES, APPROXIMATELY 161 FTABOVE SEA LEVEL. A POSITIVE RATE OF CLIMB WAS OBTAINED, VFR CONDITIONS WERE REACHED AND THE AIRCRAFT DIVERTED TO THE NEAREST CLEAR AIRPORT WHERE A SAFE LANDING WAS ACCOMPLISHED.
