Apr 3, 1982 · Hollywood, FL
THE PILOT WAS TOWING A BANNER ALONG A BEACH WHEN THE ENGINE FAILED. HE LANDED IN THE WATER JUST OFFSHORE AND ESCAPED WITHOUT INJURY. THE AIRCRAFT WAS SUBSEQUENTLY DESTROYED BY THE SURF. AN EXAMINATION OF THE ENGINE REVEALED THAT THE NO. 3 CYLINDER HAD SEPARATED. THE CYLINDER WAS NOT RECOVERED. THE ENGINE HAD ACCUMULATED ABOUT 900 HOURS SINCE OVERHAUL.
