Aircraft Accident/Incident Report

Vienna, Ohio 44473
Thursday, May 3, 2007 14:55 EDT

NTSB Narrative Summary Released at Completion of Accident

The pilot stated that approximately two to three miles from the runway, the engine "experienced engine failure." He reported that he was not able to make the runway, so he "banked right for the least congested area adjacent to the nearest road." The airplane struck the top of an unoccupied van in a junkyard, the right wing hit a tree, the left wing contacted an electric utility pole, and the airplane continued through a 6 foot tall chain link fence before coming to rest on a road. An examination of the engine and airframe revealed no pre-existing mechanical anomalies.

NTSB Probable Cause Narrative

Loss of engine power during approach for undetermined reasons. Unsuitable terrain encountered during the forced landing and a vehicle were factors.
