The pilot subsequently landed the airplane in a forested area. He stated that he had turned the airplane away from houses during the forced landing. A postaccident examination of the airplane revealed that the engine ignition system would not produce a spark. No other anomalies were found.
Probable Cause: The total failure of the engine ignition system, and the unsuitable terrain encountered during the forced landing. The low altitude was a contributing factor.
