Narrative:THE PLT REPORTED THAT DURING TAKEOFF, THERE WAS A LOSS OF POWER AT APPX 100 FT AGL. HE HAD LIFTED OFF BEFORE REACHING THE MIDPOINT OF THE RWY. HOWEVER, DUE TO THE CLIMB ATTITUDE & CONFIGURATION OF THE ACFT, HE COULD NOT SEE THE RWY BELOW & THOUGHT HE WAS AT OR BEYOND THE END OF THE RWY. HE STATED THAT HE LOWERED THE NOSE & THERE WAS AN IMMEDIATE & RAPID SINK RATE, BUT NO INDICATION OF A STALL.
