The pilot reported that during take-off he experienced a partial power loss, he elected execute a forced landing back onto the runway. During the forced landing the aircraft’s wing made contact with bushes before it collided with the fence before and came to a halt in a dense bush. Both occupants evacuated the aircraft without any assistance with no injuries sustained.
Probable Cause
It is likely that the pilot lost directional control of the aircraft which drifted off to the left-side of the runway where it eventually collided with the barbed wire fence.
