| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
During spraying operations the engine began to run very roughly and lost a considerable amount of power. The pilot considered that insufficient power remained to permit him to divert to a suitable landing area and he attempted to land straight ahead. Towards the end of the landing roll the aircraft struck a contour bank and the right landing gear collapsed. The cause of the power loss could not be positively identified, but was probably related to excessive spark plug fouling.
