On September 25, 1998, about 1725 eastern daylight time, a Cessna 152, N152DD, registered to a private owner, crashed near Reidsville, North Carolina, while on a Title 14 CFR Part 91 personal flight. Visual meteorological conditions were reported and no flight plan was filed. The airplane was substantially damaged. The private-rated pilot reported no injuries. The flight had originated from Burlington, North Carolina, about 1615. The pilot stated he flew to Warfield, circled two times and then entered the pattern for a landing. The pilot then stated he, "...made a long approach to the landing field but as soon as I realized that the paved surface was not long enough and buildings and an aircraft were at the end of the runway and having not touched down yet, I attempted to abort the landing and make a go around." After clearing the aircraft, buildings, and power lines, the pilot stated "...the aircraft tail section struck the top of a tree which threw me into the tree and suddenly the flight was terminated." The FAA inspector reported that the pilot was "attempting to land at an unfamiliar grass strip." He made two passes over the field and on the third approach he "overshot" the runway. Just before touchdown the pilot realized he was "too far down the runway for a safe landing." The pilot attempted a go around, applied power to the engine, and climbed over trees at the edge of the runway. According to the FAA inspector, "...the pilot stalled the aircraft due to high angle of attack and full flaps. Aircraft came in contact with tree 300 yards from edge of runway."
