What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
Approximately 10:14 am the transient aircraft began its takeoff roll northbound on the 36/18 7,300-foot runway at ktix from the 5,000-foot intersection. It appeared to attempt an aborted takeoff within the final 1,000 feet of the runway before continuing the takeoff. The pilot reported engine trouble and began turning back toward the runway. The aircraft appeared to stall before striking power lines and then a tree. It came to rest inverted on a road, where a post-accident fire consumed most of the aircraft severely. Post accident inspection propeller looks to have not been under power from its condition. NTSB will perform further aircraft inspection.
