| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot stated while touching down, a strong crosswind caused the airplane to "weathervane to the right". The airplane bounced. As the pilot tried to recover from the bounced landing, he stated that he "overcorrected and the airplane started to run off the right side" of the runway. At this point the pilot decided to execute a climb out, but the airplane did not have enough airspeed to climb and only got approximately three feet in the air. The airplane collided with a tree and landed partially in a pond 1300 feet from the approach end and 30 feet to the right of runway 22. The wind conditions at the time of the accident were from a heading of 280-degrees, wind speed 11 knots with a wind gust to 19 knots. The pilot did not report any mechanical malfunctions with the airplane prior to the accident. Examination of the airplane revealed damage to wings, the right door panel and the propeller. Post examination did not reveal any mechanical problems with the airplane.
Probable Cause: The pilot's attempted lift off without adequate airspeed resulting in a stall/mush and collision with trees while transitioning from an aborted landing to takeoff climb. A factor was the crosswind condition.
