Ryan PT-22, engine issues is my guess....

Given the amount of money he has, shouldn't he have had the engine completely overhauled, with new parts machined from scratch, if necessary? Or do these guys get a kick out of the pilot's equivalent of Russian roulette?

A power off landing in a plane that light and easy to fly should be a piece of cake. I do not understand why the all seem to bend the airplane when this happens. I can land a Cessna 150 on a par three, engine out one eye shut.
