THE FLT DEPARTED FROM BOISE, IDAHO, ON THE LEFT MAIN FUEL TANK. FIFTEEN MINUTES INTO THE FLT THE PLT SWITCHED TO THE LEFT AUXILIARY TANK. SEVERAL MINUTES LATER, THE ENGINE CEASED OPERATING DISPITE THE PLTS SWITCHING BACK TO THE LEFT MAIN FUEL TANK. AN ENGINE RESTART WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL. DUE TO VERY ROUGH TERRAIN, THE PLT MADE A FORCED LANDING ALONG A RIVER BANK WHERE SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE WAS DONE. NO REASON FOR THE ENGINE FAILURE COULD BE DETERMINED.
