THE NON-RATED PLT ATTEMPTED A DOWNWIND TAKEOFF FROM A 1450' PVT GRASS STRIP. THE STRIP WAS SOFT FROM RECENT RAIN & CONTAINED GRASS & WEEDS WHICH WERE 6 TO 7 INCHES HI. AFTER TAKING OFF, THE ACFT WOULD NOT CLIMB FAST ENOUGH TO CLEAR OBSTACLES. SUBSEQUENTLY, IT COLLIDED WITH A TREE & POWER LINES. THE PLT HAD ACQUIRED A STUDENT CERTIFICATE ON 12/29/72, WHICH HAD NEVER BEEN ENDORSED FOR SOLO FLT. HIS FLT TIME WAS NOT RPRTD. APRX 5 YRS HAD ELAPSED SINCE THE ACFT HAD AN ANNUAL INSPN. REGULAR (AUTO) FUEL WAS BEING USED IN THE ACFT W/O AN STC.
