The pilot reported that he was performing a landing to runway 19, a 2,942-foot-long, 40-foot-wide, asphalt runway. During the landing, the airplane bounced twice on the runway. The pilot added full power in an attempt to go-around; however, the airplane drifted left and impacted trees off the left side of the runway. Examination of the wreckage by a Federal Aviation Administration inspector revealed that during the impact, the empennage separated and the wreckage was entangled in a tree. The pilot added that there were no preimpact mechanical malfunctions with the airplane. The recorded wind near the accident site, about the time of the accident, was from 280 degrees at 6 knots.
