What happened
During a slow descent from 5,500 feet to 2,500 feet, the aircraft experienced a loss of partial engine power. The pilot attempted to recover performance by increasing the throttle position, but the engine did not respond to the adjustment.
Despite the loss of power, the aircraft's engine gauges showed no apparent mechanical problems or malfunctions. In response to the power loss, the pilot executed emergency procedures, which included checking the fuel selector valve lever, the electric fuel pump switch, and the fuel mixture control lever.
Because the engine performance failed to improve and the aircraft lacked sufficient altitude to reach the nearest airport, the pilot performed a forced landing in a field. The impact of the landing was severe enough to separate the right main landing gear from the airframe and cause the nose gear to collapse. There were no injuries reported following the accident.
