## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

PILOT WAS SHOOTING TOUCH AND GO LANDINGS AT A PRIVATE GRASS STRIP. ON BASE LEG, EXPERIENCED PARTIAL POWER LOSS. EMERGENCY LANDING WAS EXECUTED WITH THE AIRCRAFT TOUCHING DOWN SHORT OF THE RUNWAY IN A BEAN FIELD. ON ROLLOUT DUE TO UNEVEN GROUND, AIRCRAFT FLIPPED OVER RESULTING IN MINOR DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT AND NO INJURIES TO THE PILOT. CAUSE OF THE POWER LOSS WAS A BROKEN BOLT IN THE BRACKET HOLDING THE THROTTLE CABLE IN ALIGNMENT WITH THE CARBURETOR.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
