ACCORDING TO THE SINGLE WITNESS TO THE ACCIDENT, THE ACFT WAS FIRST SIGHTED FLYING 'LOW AND SLOW' OVER HIS PROPERTY, TURNING SHARPLEY. LATER, ACCORDING TO THE WITNESS, THE ACFT TURNED SHARPLEY AGAIN WHEN 'THE RIGHT WING FELL' AND THE ACFT DROPPED BEHIND THE TREES. DURING AN EXAMINATION OF THE WRECKAGE CONTROL CONTINUITY TO THE COCKPIT WAS CONFIRMED. AN EXAMINATION OF SPARK PLUGS REVEALED NO FOULING.
