Sequence of events
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.

The acft contacted several vehicles during a forced landing following a loss of pwr shortly after takeoff. Post accident inspection of the acft revealed the carburetor bowl was 1/3 full of water. No other discrepancies were noted which would have resulted in the loss of pwr.
