Accident · substantial damage
Jan 17, 1999 · St. Charles, IL
A loss of engine power due to fuel exhaustion. Also causal was the pilot's inadequate preflight/planning preparation which led to inadvertent flight into instrument meteorological conditions and him becoming lost/disoriented. Contributing to the accident were the low ceiling, his lack of recent experience in instrument flying and the snow covered field.
THE ENG QUIT SHORTLY AFTER TAKEOFF & THE ACFT LANDED IN A BEAN FIELD. THE FUEL SELECTOR WAS FOUND ON THE EMPTY RIGHT MAIN FUEL TANK. THE LEFT MAIN FUEL TANK & TIP TANKS WERE FULL OF FUEL.
These match the airframe or engine model. Whether each one applies, and whether it's been complied with, depends on serial numbers, equipment and logbook entries. Applicability must be confirmed by a mechanic against the aircraft's records.
