The pilot, having attempted flight, should have felt the sluggishness and attempted to return. Maybe he did, idk...

Or maybe not...
The agency in a post on X said the plane hit the chimney of a home and then the second floor of a building before crashing into a mobile phone shop in a largely residential neighborhood of Gramado. More than a dozen people who were on the ground were taken to hospitals with injuries including smoke inhalation, with two said to be in critical condition.

Weather was not mentioned.

He may have been running down the runway and V1 came and went before he figured it out. He had to pull up at that point.

I’ve seen it a bunch. Idiots in 172s with a full load of fuel and four guys in the AC. They keep running down the runway - thinking they are going to get up, then run out of room and eat the chain link at the far end.

It happened twice in two months at I65 a couple years ago.
