Probable cause
Inadvertent stall during the forced landing approach. A factor was the partial loss of power for undetermined reasons.
Sequence of events
NTSB’s coding before 2008: each occurrence and phase of flight, and the causes and factors under it. The codes are defined in NTSB’s coding manual.
Analysis
The student pilot on an endorsed solo cross country flight experienced a momentary partial power loss on climbout following a touch and go landing. Engine power was regained but the airplane was too low and too slow. Therefore, when the pilot pulled the nose up in an effort to clear trees the airplane stalled, followed by impact with trees and the terrain. No anomalies were found with the powerplant and the cause of the partial loss of power could not be determined.
