## Probable cause

The pilot's failure to maintain directional control during an aborted landing.

## Sequence of events

In NTSB's coding before 2008 (https://www.ntsb.gov/GILS/Documents/codman.pdf).

- Loss of control - in flight, landing - aborted
  - directional control - not maintained, pilot in command (cause)
- In flight collision with object, landing - aborted
  - object - tree(s)

## Analysis

The pilot added full power to abort a bounced landing.  He applied right rudder and turned the airplane to the right, but it veered to the left and impacted trees.  The pilot reported 43 hours in make and model.
