NTSB’s coding before 2008: each occurrence and phase of flight, and the causes and factors under it. The codes are defined in NTSB’s coding manual.
Analysis
The acft made a forced landing after the eng began to overheat during cruise flt about 20 minutes after departure. The plt stated that as soon as he smelled the oil heating up he knew what the problem was. He had not removed the foam plugs from the air intakes during his preflt. These plugs are used by some plts to prevent birds from nesting in the area behind the prop hub. During the forced lndg the nose gear was damaged in a furrow and the acft nosed over.
