  1. Aircraft operated by Auburn University suffered catastrophic loss of power upon go around from instrument approach. This was according to the report the third time that week the aircraft suffered some loss of power and or engine roughness thought to be due to spark plug issues. Aircraft never received maintenance on either occasion.
