Read the full NTSB narrative
DURING TAKEOFF, THE ENGINE LOST POWER AT ABOUT 50 FT AGL AFTER THE PILOT HAD RAISED THE GEAR. REPORTEDLY, THERE WAS INSUFFICIENT TIME TO EXTEND THE GEAR, SO A WHEELS-UP LANDING WAS MADE ON THE REMAINING PORTION OF THE RUNWAY. AN INVESTIGATION REVEALED THAT A STRAINER IN THE CARBURETOR WAS ABOUT THREE QUARTERS CLOGGED WITH A FINE LINT-LIKE MATERIAL ASSOCIATED WITH THE FUEL TANK LINER.
