REFLECTOR: aircraft accident

[Gary T. Ciampa]

All,

Yes, N360TV, is now based out of KTTA, a 173 RG; The owner was out for a 
site seeing flight, so to speak and lost engine power at 1,800, a few 
miles outside of KEYF, in Eastern NC. A restart attempt failed and he 
did not have sufficient altitude to make the airport. He made an 
excellent emergency landing, dead stick, into a field. No damage to the 
airplane and no one injured.

The A&P at KEYF is doing the forensics to determine the cause for the 
engine failure;

Gary
