| Confidence Rating: |  Information verified through data from accident investigation authorities |
During take off, in the aircraft which had recently had an overhauled engine fitted, the pilot experienced vibration and lack of climbing power, so decided that rather then attempt to clear a row of trees ahead, would terminate the flight and land the aircraft in a field straight ahead, off the airfield .
The aircraft was recovered to the airfield later that day and a normal take off and flight to its home base at Sywell was completed.
Subsequent investigations deemed that an overhauled engine could possibly display vibrations and some loss of power until the engine was fully run in.
