Shortly after the airplane became airborne, the engine lost power, and the airplane settled back onto the grass airstrip. The pilot was unable to stop the airplane before it overran the runway, after which it impacted a fence, fence post, and a 10-foot high tree, coming to rest perpendicular to the airstrip. Examination of the radial engine revealed that the engine would not rotate. The reason for the loss of engine power was not determined.
Probable Cause: the loss of engine power for an undertermined reason. A factor was the lack of suitable terrain for the forced landing.
