Jodel D120 Paris-Nice, G-BKGB

Summary:

The aircraft had just gone around because the pilot felt that his groundspeed was too high. As the aircraft turned onto the crosswind leg, the engine stopped suddenly. The subsequent forced landing in a field adjacent to the airfield was successful but the right wing was damaged when it struck a sheep although the animal did not appear to have been injured.
