Narrative:
I had made a routine touchdown for a touch-and-go landing. After applying power and climbing 100-150 ft, the engine began to miss. All engine operating instruments were normal, but the airplane would not climb. I elected to make a precautionary landing straight ahead to avoid proceeding over a populated area and any temptation to turn and induce a stall spin. I landed back on the runway, but with insufficient remaining runway to avoid running off the end into a hay field. The airplane remained upright and stopped approximately 100 yards into the field. The plane sustained minimal damage. I received no injury at all. I attribute this to my seat belt and 'Y' type over-the-shoulder harness which was cinched down tight.

Title: EXPERIMENTAL BIPLANE HAS ENG PWR LOSS AT TKOF. ABORTS BUT RUNS OUT OF RWY.
Narrative: I HAD MADE A ROUTINE TOUCHDOWN FOR A TOUCH-AND-GO LNDG. AFTER APPLYING PWR AND CLBING 100-150 FT, THE ENG BEGAN TO MISS. ALL ENG OPERATING INSTS WERE NORMAL, BUT THE AIRPLANE WOULD NOT CLB. I ELECTED TO MAKE A PRECAUTIONARY LNDG STRAIGHT AHEAD TO AVOID PROCEEDING OVER A POPULATED AREA AND ANY TEMPTATION TO TURN AND INDUCE A STALL SPIN. I LANDED BACK ON THE RWY, BUT WITH INSUFFICIENT REMAINING RWY TO AVOID RUNNING OFF THE END INTO A HAY FIELD. THE AIRPLANE REMAINED UPRIGHT AND STOPPED APPROX 100 YARDS INTO THE FIELD. THE PLANE SUSTAINED MINIMAL DAMAGE. I RECEIVED NO INJURY AT ALL. I ATTRIBUTE THIS TO MY SEAT BELT AND 'Y' TYPE OVER-THE-SHOULDER HARNESS WHICH WAS CINCHED DOWN TIGHT.
