The student pilot was on final approach to the destination airport during a solo flight when the engine lost total power. Given the airplane's low altitude, he chose to make an emergency landing in a nearby field, during which the airplane impacted a ditch, nosed over, and came to rest inverted. The airplane erupted into flames and was consumed by fire.
The postcrash fire damage precluded examination of the airplane, and the reason for the loss of engine power was not determined based on the available information.
Probable Cause: A total loss of engine power during final approach for reasons that could not be determined based on the available information.
