## Narrative

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

(-23) DURING FERRY FLIGHT TO FIELD SITE, ENGINE BEGAN TO LOSE POWER, AIRCRAFT BEGAN LOSING ALTITUDE. PILOT PERFORMED EMERGENCY DUMP OF AG CHEMICAL AND MANEUVERED TOWARD EMERGENCY LANDING SITE, A HAY FIELD APPROXIMATELY 800 FEET LONG. PILOT LANDED THE AIRCRAFT, HOWEVER, DURING THE LANDING ROLLOUT, THE AIRCRAFT WENT THROUGH A SHALLOW DITCH RUNNING PERPENDICULAR TO THE LANDING DIRECTION; THE AIRCRAFT WENT AIRBORNE, AND LANDED AGAIN. THE PILOT THEN APPLIED MAXIMUM BRAKING AND REVERSE THRUST. THE BRAKING ACTION AND REVERSE THRUST WERE INSUFFICIENT DUE TO THE GRASS SURFACE, AND LOSS OF ENGINE POWER. THE AIRCRAFT SLID INTO THE TREES AT THE END OF THE FIELD, STRUCK A TREE. THE RIGHT MAIN LANDING GEAR COLLAPSED PUNCTURING RIGHT MAIN FUEL TANK. THE PILOT EGRESSED WITHOUT INJURY. POST-CRASH FIRE DESTROYED THE AIRCRAFT.
