THE ACFT WAS DAMAGED WHILE MAKING A FORCED LANDING AFTER THE ENGINE STOPPED. THE PILOT SAID HE WAS AT 1200 FEET NEAR POINT MACKENZIE WHEN THE ENGINE STARTED RUNNING ROUGH. THE ENGINE STOPPED OPERATING A FEW SECONDS LATER. THE PILOT SAID HE HAD TROUBLE SWITCHING TANKS BECAUSE THE SELECTOR WAS IN A PLACE THAT WAS HARD TO SEE AND IT MADE HIM LOSE OUTSIDE REFERENCE.
