Analysis

Plt stated that the acft was low on final apch and full pwr was added to go-around. The acft continued to settle until it contacted the rwy. The acft traveled off the left side of the rwy. After continuing through grass the acft contacted a steel angle iron which bordered a tetrahedron. Plt stated full pwr was not received when the throttle was advanced for the go-around. Inspection of the engine and carburetor revealed no mechanical failure or malfunction.
