This type of accident is so common that it has a name; "The Impossible Turn"

"On takeoff, in the event of an engine failure with insufficient runway remaining, we will land straight ahead making only small corrections to avoid obstacles"

"In the event of an engine failure the first thing the pilot should be thinking about is a wing stall"

And one I read here; "Below 100 Kts, fly angle of attack"

I'm not familiar with this accident but, I wouldn't get hung up on gear operation causing a crash. Mooneys land safely with gear up.

Very true, pilots continue to demonstrate this almost daily.

And IIRC this is what's taught in the emergency landing course for non-pilot right-seaters. SOP.
