THE PILOT USED ZERO FLAPS AND ABOUT 2/3RDS OF THE AVAILABLE RUNWAY IN AN ATTEMPT TO PRACTICE A SHORT FIELD TAKEOFF. DURING THE TAKEOFF ROLL THE PILOT WAS UNABLE TO OBTAIN TAKEOFF SPEED AND ELECTED TO ABORT BUT WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE AIRCRAFT BEFORE IT ROLLED OFF A 50 FOOT DROP. THE RUNWAY SURFACE WAS DESCRIBED AS ROUGH EVEN THOUGH IT WAS ASPHALT. THE AIRCRAFT OWNER'S MANUAL STATES THAT THE USE OF 10 DEGREES OF FLAPS WILL SHORTEN THE GROUND RUN APPROXIMATELY 10% AND THAT THEY SHOULD BE USED FOR MINUMUM GROUND RUNS OR FOR TAKEOFFS FROM SOFT OR ROUGH FIELDS WITH NO OBSTACLES AHEAD.
