The airplane was on a 2-mile final approach when its turbine engine lost total power. The pilot said that he did not look at the engine gauges and that there were no aural warnings. He made a forced landing to a field, and the airplane bounced and came to rest just forward of the first touch down spot. A postaccident examination of the airframe, available fuel supply, engine, and components revealed no preimpact anomalies or mechanical deficiencies that would have precluded the engine from operating. The source of the power loss could not be determined.
Probable Cause: A loss of engine power for undetermined reasons.
