Morane-Saulnier M.S.760 Paris

On final approach to Alief-Andrau Airpark while conducting a flight from New Orleans to Brownsville, the pilot decided to initiate a go-around manoeuvre. He retracted the landing gear when the airplane stalled and struck the runway surface. It skidded off the end of runway and came to rest. Both occupants were injured, the pilot seriously, and the aircraft was written off.
