THE PILOT ELECTED TO ABORT THE TAKEOFF AFTER THE AIRPLANE BECAME AIRBORNE AFTER EXECUTING A SHORT FIELD TAKEOFF PROCEDURE FROM A 2,400 FOOT GRASS AIRSTRIP. THE AIRCRAFT, WITH 4 ADULTS AND ONE TODDLER ABOARD, WAS A COUPLE OF FEET ABOVE THE GROUND AS THE PILOT ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE. THE PILOT CLOSED THE THROTTLE TO ABORT THE TAKEOFF WHEN THE AIRPLANE HAD USED APPROXIMATELY 2/3 OF THE RUNWAY. THE AIRPLANE TOUCHED DOWN NEAR THE END OF THE RUNWAY, AND THE PILOT ATTEMPTED TO STOP THE AIRPLANE BY APPLYING THE BRAKES. BRAKING ACTION ON THE GRASS SURFACE DID NOT SLOW THE AIRPLANE DOWN, AND SUBSEQUENTLY THE AIRPLANE OVERRAN THE RUNWAY, WENT THROUGH A BARBED WIRE FENCE, AND IMPACTED FENCE POSTS. DENSITY ALTITUDE WAS 2,600 FEET AND THE WINDS WERE CALM.
Probable Cause: THE PILOT'S DELAYED DECISION TO ABORT THE TAKEOFF. THE PILOT'S FAILURE TO PROPERLY CALCULATE THE PERFORMANCE DATA PRIOR TO TAKEOFF WAS A FACTOR.
