WHILE ON A LOCAL FLT, THE ACFT COLLIDED WITH TREES IN A CANYON. THE PLT REPORTED THE ACFT'S ALT WAS LOWER THAN ANTICIPATED & THE TERRAIN IN THE CANYON ROSE RAPIDLY. FULL ENG POWER WAS NOT SUFFICIENT TO NEGOTIATE THE RISING TERRAIN. THE PLT REPORTED THE ACFT'S AIRSPEED & ALT WERE INSUFFICIENT TO EXECUTE A 180 DEG TURN. REALIZING HIS SITUATION, HE ELECTED TO 'STALL' THE ACFT INTO THE TREES.
These match the airframe or engine model. Whether each one applies, and whether it's been complied with, depends on serial numbers, equipment and logbook entries. Applicability must be confirmed by a mechanic against the aircraft's records.
