According to the pilot, he was performing a fly-over with another airplane when the engine lost power. The pilot was able to restart the engine; however, it lost power shortly thereafter.

Probable Cause: The loss of engine power for reasons undetermined. Contributing to the damage of the airplane were the three ditches and the lack of suitable terrain for a forced landing.
