| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
About 35 minutes into the cross-country flight, the engine lost power, and the airplane started to descend. Although the engine lost power when the airplane was flying directly over, and in line with, a wide road, which would have provided ample space for a safe landing, the pilot was unable to land the airplane on the road. Instead, he performed a forced landing to a field adjacent to the road. The airplane struck a fence and sustained substantial damage; none of the five occupants were injured. A postaccident examination of the airframe and engine revealed no evidence of mechanical malfunctions or failures that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: A total loss of engine power during cruise flight for reasons that could not be determined because postaccident examination did not reveal any anomalies that would have precluded normal operation.
