A FORCED LANDING WAS ATTEMPTED TO AN OPEN FIELD BEYOND A GROVE OF PECAN TREES, RESULTING IN THE AIRPLANE CARTWHEELING OVER ROUGH AND UNEVEN TERRAIN. POST ACCIDENT INSPECTION OF THE AIRPLANE AND A COMPLETE ENGINE TEARDOWN FAILED TO DISCLOSE ANY ANOMALIES THAT WOULD HAVE PREVENTED NORMAL ENGINE OPERATION.
