DURING TAKEOFF ON A RIVER, THE PILOT REPORTED THAT THE AIRPLANE GOT ON THE STEP QUICKLY BUT WOULD NOT FLY. THE PILOT BELIEVED THAT THE PLANE SHOULD HAVE FLOWN BECAUSE HE HAD DEPARTED FROM THE AREA SEVERAL TIMES PREVIOUSLY AND THE AIRPLANE WAS WELL BELOW THE MAXIMUM AUTHORIZED GROSS WEIGHT. THE PILOT SAID THAT HE ALLOWED THE TAKEOFF RUN TO CONTINUE TOO LONG BEFORE ABORTING.
Probable Cause: THE PILOT IN COMMAND'S DELAY IN ABORTING THE TAKEOFF. THE TREES WERE A FACTOR IN THE ACCIDENT.
