As the aircraft was being flown back to the strip following an aerial spraying operation, the engine began to vibrate heavily and the pilot shut down the engine. After the engine was shut down, a 21cm tip of one of the propeller blades separated from the propeller. The pilot elected to conduct a forced landing in a nearby paddock with windrows consisting of recently bulldozed trees.
