On April 6, 2021, about 1130 eastern daylight time, a Beech A36, N18394, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near Arcadia, Florida. The pilot was seriously injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight.
Shortly after takeoff, the pilot noticed the engine rpm had increased and oil pressure was zero. While returning to the airport the engine lost all power and the pilot performed a forced landing to a field.
About 8 months prior to the accident, all six cylinders were replaced. Examination of the engine revealed the engine was seized and would not rotate. The reason for the loss of power was not determined.
The engine was not made available for an NTSB postaccident examination.
Probable Cause: A total loss of engine power for underdetermined reasons.
