NTSB accident and incident record under N559LJ
Aircraft on the NTSB record: Lonnie Johnson RV6A · serial 25559
The failure of the pilot to activate carburetor heat control during cruise flight after experiencing a loss of engine rpm, inadequate carburetor heat system by the builder, and the unsuitable terrain encountered by the pilot-in-command during the forced landing following the total loss of engine power. A factor in the accident was the weather conditions ( temperature and dew point) which were susceptible to carburetor icing during cruise flight and descent.
