Aircraft on the NTSB record: Ercoupe (Eng & Research Corp.) ERCO-415C · serial 3855
Detonation within the No. 2 cylinder resulting in melting and breaching of the piston, and the pilot's selection of unsuitable terrain for landing. Contributing factors were the uphill terrain encountered during the landing and the visual perception (illusion) that the terrain was not sloped.
