The airplane collided with trees during an aborted landing. While on final approach to the runway, the pilot noted that the airplane was above the runway's normal glide path and that the airspeed was faster than normal. The airplane touched down halfway down the length of the runway with excessive speed. As the airplane skidded down the runway, continuing off the runway surface, the pilot attempted to abort the landing by manipulating the throttle control to the full power setting. The airplane became airborne briefly before colliding with trees off the departure end of the runway. The pilot reported no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures with airplane.
Probable Cause: the pilot's misjudged speed and distance, and his failure to perform a go-around which resulted in a runway overrun.
