A WITNESS RPRTD THE PLT/OWNER MADE AN OFF-ARPT LANDING. THE WITNESS SAID HE WENT TO THE ACFT WHILE THE ENG WAS STILL RUNNING & TALKED TO THE PLT. THE PLT TOLD THE WITNESS THAT THE ENG WAS OVERHEATING, SO HE (THE PLT) DECIDED TO LAND IN THE FIELD TO LET THE ENG COOL DOWN. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE PLT INITIATED A TAKEOFF. HOWEVER, SHORTLY AFTER LIFT-OFF, WHILE ATTEMPTING TO CLIMB OVER TREES, THE ACFT ENTERED A STEEP DESCENT & CRASHED IN A NOSE DOWN ATTITUDE. THE ACFT CAME TO REST ON ITS NOSE WITH NO MOVEMENT AFTER IMPACT. AN EXAM OF THE ACFT & ENG REVEALED NO MECHANICAL DEFECTS & NO EVIDENCE OF OVERHEATING. THE LAST ANNUAL INSPECTION OF THE ACFT WAS DATED 8/4/86.
