The purpouse was to test the a/c after replacing the magneto on the VW engine. The engine started to misfire after take-off and a forced landing was planned at the glider field (grass) in the flightpath but the engine stared to give power and a left turn to the paved airfield was commenced.
However the a/c lost altitude during the turn and crashed in a bog south of the airfield.
The pilot was seriously injured but survived much to the crash into the soft bog.
The malfunction of the engine possibly with icing of the carburator caused the crash. Several problems with the engine was found during the investigation.
