Read the full NTSB narrative
The pilot said that during a landing attempt, the airspeed got low and he flared a 'little high.' He applied full power to perform a go-around, but the airplane mushed to the ground. The impact sequence bent both wings and wrinkled the fuselage. The weather conditions at the time of the accident were as follows: temperature 77 degrees Fahrenheit; altimeter setting 30.28 inches of mercury; density altitude 10,799 feet (elevation 8,149 feet).
