THE PILOT SAID THAT SHORTLY AFTER TAKEOFF, AT 200 FEET AGL, THE ENGINE QUIT. HE TRIED TO LAND ON THE REMAINING RUNWAY BUT THE AIRPLANE WENT OFF LEFT SIDE, THEN THROUGH A DITCH. NO PROBLEMS COULD BE FOUND TO CAUSE THE LOSS OF ENGINE POWER. THE ENGINE WAS LATER RUN IN A TEST CELL WITH AN FAA INSPECTOR MONITORING. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF AN RPM DROP DUE TO DAMAGE OF AN IGNITION LEAD, THE ENGINE RUN WAS NORMAL. THE PILOT REPORTED THAT THE CROSSWIND CAUSED HIM TO GO OFF THE SIDE OF THE RUNWAY.
