| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot reported he touched down further down the runway then he intended and the airplane porpoised twice during touchdown. The pilot reported he elected to go-around after the second porpoise as he was running out of runway. He reported that during the go-around he retracted the flaps from full to neutral, and he applied full power and right rudder. The pilot reported the airplane entered a left yaw/roll during the go-around. The airplane then contacted a hangar, a chain link fence, and a ditch prior to spinning 180 degrees and sliding to a stop.
Probable Cause: the pilot's improper raising of flaps and not maintaining directional control of the aircraft during the go-around sequence.
