Analysis
Witness stated acft touched down midfield and bounced several times on the rwy. Two witnesses heard power applied and the acft lifted off 300 ft from the end of the rwy. They stated flaps were fully extended for the total transition and the gear was retracted only after the first set of power lines. At aprx 100 ft AGL the acft began to descend at which time it contacted a utility pole followed by trees. The plt stated the engine did not seem to be producing full power during the climb. However, post accident investigation of the engine revealed no mechanical malfunctions. The plt stated the long landing was made because of turbulence encountered over the trees during the approach.
