THE PILOT MADE A TAKE OFF FROM AN OPEN FIELD.  HE FLEW ALONG THE COAST OF LAKE TEXOMA.  HE MADE A LEFT TURN AND STARTED A CLIMB TO CLEAR TREES THAT WERE AHEAD OF HIM.  THE PILOT VEERED TO THE LEFT TO MISS A TREE BUT COULD NOT CLIMB QUICK ENOUGH TO CLEAR THE NEXT TREE.  THE AIRCRAFT CAME TO REST IN A TREE.
