The German Beech Bonanza with two people on board was en route from Norderney, a German island in the East Frisian Islands, to Nordhorn-Lingen Airport in Germany. In the vicinity of Bourtange (in the Province of Groningen, Netherlands), at an altitude of approximately 2,000 feet, the engine started to make a strange noise and lost full power shortly afterwards according to the pilot’s statement. After performing a number of standard operations, which failed to increase the engine power, the pilot decided to perform an emergency landing. The pilot chose a potato field for this manoeuvre and performed the emergency landing with the landing gear retracted and without putting the flaps into the landing position.
According to the pilot, this procedure was intended to prevent the aircraft from flipping over. The aircraft came to a standstill on its belly and sustained minor damage. The passengers were unhurt.
