What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
During cruise at 1100' AGL, the aircraft experienced a sudden loss of power/engine failure. The experimental, amateur built aircraft is equipped with a mazda 13B, fuel injected engine. The subject aircraft last had a condition inspection completed on 11/01/2019.
The pilot attempted an emergency landing into a cotton field and the plane ultimately flipped over and came to rest inverted due to the landing gear digging into the soft soil of the field. The cause of loss of power has yet to be determined.
