At that Density Altitude, I think the mixture should've been pulled out more than 2".

This guy deserves lots of criticism, but give him credit for one thing: He kept the plane flying. Most of these accidents end in a stall and/or spin close to the ground, and are usually fatal. The fact that the plane was under control right up until it hit the trees is probably what saved their lives.
