## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

HE APPLIED FULL POWER, BUT REALIZED HE WAS FACING THE BANK WITH TREES AND WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO CLIMB OVER THEM.  HE THEN PULLED THE POWER AND SET THE PLANE DOWN AND HIT THE SHORE BETWEEN TWO TREES CRUSHING THE 2 WINGS.
