THE PILOT DECIDED TO PRACTICE TOUCH AND GO LANDINGS. ACCORDING TO A CERTIFIED FLIGHT INSTRUCTOR WHO WITNESSED THE ACCIDENT, THE FIRST TWO APPROACHES TO THE RUNWAY ENDED WITH GO-AROUNDS. THE WITNESS SAID THAT DURING THE THIRD APPROACH, THE AIRPLANE HAD 'EXCESSIVE SPEED.' THE AIRPLANE TOUCHED DOWN AND CONTINUED TO ROLL OFF THE END OF THE RUNWAY AND INTO TREES. THE PILOT STATED THAT HE APPLIED THE BRAKES, BUT THEY DID NOT SEEM TO STOP THE AIRPLANE. NO EVIDENCE WAS FOUND ON THE RUNWAY TO INDICATE THAT THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. DURING A POST-ACCIDENT EXAMINATION, NO PRE-IMPACT MECHANICAL DEFICIENCIES WERE FOUND WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM.
