What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
The pilot stated he reduced power to the engine prior to turning his base leg and experienced a power loss. He attempted to increase power and got no response from the engine. He managed to fly to the runway and experienced a hard landing. Investigation discovered marks on the runway indicating hard contact with the runway and a resulting rebound and second contact. Both main gear wheels detached from the aircraft. Markings on the runway indicate that the aircraft slid approximately 100 feet and exited the runway to the right. The aircraft caught fire, causing minor burns to the pilot and the passenger.
