The airplane impacted a tree line while attempting an aborted landing. The pilot reported he encountered rough/uneven runway conditions during the taxi tests and unintentionally became airborne. The pilot stated he attempted three landings. On the third landing attempt he elected to abort the landing due to the rough/uneven runway condition. During the aborted landing the aircraft impacted a tree line. The pilot had no flight experience in the accident airplane prior to the accident flight. The pilot's last medical examination was on March 24, 1994. The FAA Airport/Facility Directory states the condition of the runway as being, "broken [asphalt] potholes with loose aggregate and grass growing in cracks."
