BTW, the plane did hit the truck at a pretty high speed. He had

it to attempt a go-around about 500 ft. before impact. He was pretty
close to takeoff speed.


pretty late to decide for a go-arround on an uphill strip with trees at it's
end (i guess it's big cr). i'm not so sure if a mooney should be my first
choice for that kind of flying...

besides, i can only repeat what dean already said: don't fly the backcountry
without experience. flying, especially taking off and landing, is very
different from what most pilots are used to.


cheers,
