A Beechcraft Queen Air was taking off from Lawrenceville, Georgia when the right engine lost power just after rotation. The pilot feathered it and tried to return, but the left engine also lost power, and the aircraft struck trees and terrain. A post-crash fire followed and one occupant was killed. The post-accident examination found no mechanical malfunction that would have prevented normal operation.
