On March 18, 1994, approximately 1015 hours mountain standard time (mst), a Cessna 182G, N2399R, registered to and being flown by Harry E. Noel (Jr.), a certificated commercial pilot, was destroyed when it nosed over during an aborted takeoff following a partial loss of power at a private dirt airstrip near Belgrade, Montana. The pilot and two passengers were uninjured. Visual meteorological conditions existed and a VFR flight plan had been filed. The flight, which was personal in nature, was to have been operated in accordance with the requirements set forth in 14CFR91 and was departing from the pilot's private airstrip and destined for Elko, Nevada. The pilot reported that during the takeoff roll he applied "turbo to increase manifold pressure by two or three inches" and that During the takeoff he did "not remember feeling that increase in power." He further stated that "just as I broke ground (the) engine surged and then cut out." The pilot closed the throttle, aborted his takeoff, and attempted to stop the aircraft on the remaining surface of the 2,200 foot turf runway. The pilot reported in a telephone interview with the investigator in charge that during the abort the aircraft collided with a barb wire fence and that the pilot intentionally applied right brake in an attempt to ground loop the aircraft and prevent it from entering a stream. The nose gear collapsed during the rollout and the aircraft then nosed over. The aircraft's engine was subsequently test run at the facilities of Arlin's Aircraft Services at the Bozeman airport. The engine was run from idle to full power without any malfunction.
