probably will not find any NTSB record of an aircraft accident

135 HP V4 Evenrude in 1985 but I had a "front row seat" for that one

Was that a rotorcraft Tracy?

No, it was a fixed wing aircraft of my own design.  The engine failure was

the primary cause of the accident but a contributing factor was that the
airplane had almost no pitch control in the engine out condition.  Makes
landing a real bear.
