The airplane was substantially damaged when it landed long and subsequently impacted a chain link airport perimeter fence and trees during an aborted landing on runway 26 (3,058 feet by 50 feet, asphalt). The pilot added full power, and near the end of the runway he pitched up, the airplane porpoised two or three times, and veered to the left of the runway. The airplane then pitched down and continued down the grassy slope left of the runway, where it subsequently impacted a chain link perimeter fence and trees. No mechanical anomalies with the airplane were reported by the pilot. The pilot stated in his accident report that the accident could have been prevented by performing a go-around.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to achieve a proper touchdown point and delayed decision to abort the landing. Factors contributing to the accident include the chain link fence and the trees.
