Too high. Began go around nose high full flaps. Slow and low hit power line and struck warehouse roof. (.4)on his second attempt to land on runway 31, the pilot said, he came in "too high", and dropped 30 degrees of flaps to "lose altitude." He was not "maintaining directional control: as well as he would have liked, so he began "another go-around." He added full power, pushed in the carburetor heat and waited for the airspeed to build up before retracting the flaps. He said the airspeed did not "build up." As the airplane reached the end of the 4,999-foot runway, ti cleared a fence, and the pilot said he then "saw a power line dead ahead." He "pulled up" to clear the power lines. The landing gear caught the power line, and the right wing struck the pole. The airplane "spun around" and nosed into the top of a building where it came to rest. The airplane was seen by witnesses at a slow speed when it struck the power line and impacted the building. Nobody on the ground was injured. No discrepancies were found with either the airframe or the engine. At the time of the accident the pilot had a total of 81 flight hours, with 79.6 flight hours in this make and model airplane. (-23) during his landing approach the pilot elected to go-around. The aircraft was unable to climb because the pilot failed to retract the flaps. After over flying the 4999 ft runway the aircraft struck a light pole and a cable. The pilot lost control and impacted on the roof of a warehouse.
