Narrative:WHILE ON A LOCAL FLT, THE PLT NOTICED FLUCTUATING OIL PRESSURE & ELECTED TO MAKE A PRECAUTIONARY LANDING IN A FIELD. HE STATED THAT AFTER LANDING, HE CHECKED THE OIL & RAN UP THE ENG, BUT NOTED NO MALFUNCTIONS, SO HE ELECTED TO TAKEOFF AGAIN. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO TAKEOFF FROM THE FIELD, WHICH WAS SOFT, HE REALIZED THAT HE WOULD BE UNABLE TO CLEAR POWER LINES. THEREFORE, HE ABORTED THE TAKEOFF.
