Read the full NTSB narrative
The pilot stated that he performed a visual approach and landing at the destination airport with wing flaps fully extended. As the airplane crossed the runway threshold and with the airplane in ground effect, he reduced engine power to idle. When the airplane was about to touch down, it ballooned upward about 20 to 30 ft, and the pilot then initiated a go-around using full engine power with the landing gear extended and without reducing the flap setting. During the go-around, the stall warning sounded as the airplane drifted left and away from the runway. The airplane impacted the ground and was destroyed by post-crash fire. The pilot stated there was no mechanical malfunction/failure of the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
