THE CFI REPORTED THAT HE TURNED THE ACFT ABOUT 25 DEG IN AN ATTEMPT TO GLIDE TO A BEAN FIELD & AVOID TALL CORN. HOWEVER, THERE WAS INSUFFICIENT ALT TO AVOID THE CORN. AFTER LANDING IN THE CORN FIELD & ON MUDDY GROUND, THE ACFT NOSED OVER. AN EXAM OF THE ENG & ACFT REVEALED NO PREIMPACT MECHANICAL PROBLEM THAT WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN A LOSS OF POWER.
