NTSB Narrative Summary Released at Completion of Accident

On February 23, 2014, about 1405 Mountain Standard Time, a Cessna P210N, N18DP, experienced a loss of engine power shortly after takeoff from Skypark Airport (BTF), Bountiful Utah. The pilot (sole occupant), sustained no injuries and the airplane sustained substantial damage to the left wing and empennage. The airplane was registered to, and operated by a private party under the provisions of 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 as a personal flight. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed for the flight, and no flight plan was filed. The airplane was destined for Heber City Municipal Airport – Russ McDonald Field (36U), Heber, Utah. The pilot reported that this was the first flight after the airplane's annual inspection. He conducted a thorough preflight inspection and run-up. Before takeoff, the pilot added full power with the brakes applied. With no abnormal engine noises or indications the pilot initiated a takeoff. When the airplane reached about 150-200 feet above the ground the engine started to run rough. Unable to maintain altitude the pilot executed a forced landing onto a nearby field. During the landing the airplane sunk into the mud and nosed over. The airplane has been removed to a secure location for further examination.
