14 CFR Part 91: General Aviation
Accident occurred Sunday, December 30, 2007 in Alexandria, MN
Aircraft: Lerohl RV-8, registration: N5093F
Injuries: 1 Uninjured.

The pilot reported that he conducted a preflight and run-up of the  
amateur-built experimental airplane, and he reported that it was  
operating normally. The airplane had climbed to 200 - 300 feet at 90  
knots when the engine lost power. The pilot executed a forced landing  
to the airport property. The airplane landed hard and the main  
landing gear collapsed. The airplane and engine were inspected but  
the reason for the loss of power was not determined.
