Narrative:The student and instructor were engaged in circuit training when the lost engine power during a left- hand turn after take-off. The instructor took over control of the aircraft and attempted to recover the engine power, but was unsuccessful. He then elected to do a forced landing on an open area on his right-hand side. During the forced landing, the aircraft undercarriage collided with an anthill on its right-hand side and the right wheel broke off. The aircraft continued skidding until it reached its final resting point, facing north-west. The aircraft sustained substantial damage to the right-hand main wheel, right-hand wing, and tail section. The instructor and student were not injured in the accident sequence. Engine run tests indicated no anomalies. The fouling inspection was satisfactory. The investigation could not conclusively determine what caused the engine failure during flight. PROBABLE CAUSE: Unsuccessful forced landing due to engine failure during training flight 6.13
