Jun 13, 1987 · Norwood, CO
THE PLT WAS CIRCLING GND PSNL AT 300 TO 500 FT AGL, BANKING UP TO 60 DEG, WHEN THE ENG QUIT. AN ENG RESTART WAS SUCCESSFUL; HOWEVER, THE ACFT WAS TOO LOW TO RECOVER & IT COLLIDED WITH A FENCE. AFTER HITTING THE FENCE, THE ACFT CRASHED TO THE GND & WAS DAMAGED. A POST ACDNT ENG RUN & MAGNETO CHECK WERE NORMAL. AN EXAM OF THE ACFT DID NOT REVEAL ANY EVIDENCE OF A PRE-ACDNT FAILURE OR DEFICIENCY.
These match the airframe or engine model. Whether each one applies, and whether it's been complied with, depends on serial numbers, equipment and logbook entries. Applicability must be confirmed by a mechanic against the aircraft's records.
