AFTER LIFTOFF FROM A LAKE THE AIRPLANE'S ENGINE STOPPED PRODUCING POWER AND THE AIRPLANE BEGAN SETTLING TOWARD THE REMAINING LAKE. THE ENGINE SURGED AND THE AIRPLANE CRASHED ON THE TUNDRA, 200 YARDS FROM THE LAKE'S EDGE. THE PILOT STATED THAT HE DRAINED THE FUEL SUMPS ON THE FIRST FLIGHT OF THE DAY AND FOUND WATER, BUT DID NOT DRAIN THE FUEL SUMPS ON SUBSEQUENT FLIGHTS.
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.
