NTSB Factual Report

On December 3, 2017, about 1325 Pacific standard time, a Cessna 152, N714TD, sustained substantial damage during a forced landing after a loss of engine power near Snohomish County Airport - Paine Field (PAE) Everett, Washington. The certified flight instructor and student pilot sustained minor injuries. The airplane was registered to Morcom Aviation Services Inc., and operated by Regal Air under the provisions of 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 as an instructional flight. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed and no flight plan was filed for the local flight. The flight departed PAE about 1240.

According to the flight instructor, after conducting local area work, they returned to the airport to conduct practice touch and go landings. On the first approach, the airplane was high on the glide path and a go-around was initiated. During the go-around, about 150 ft above ground level, the engine sputtered and lost power. The flight instructor stated that they were unable to make the runway, and elected to land in a nearby field. During the landing sequence, the airplane struck a tree and a utility pole.

Postaccident examination of the airplane by the Federal Aviation Administration, revealed substantial damage to the wings. The airplane was recovered to a secure storage facility for further examination.
