## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

NARRATIVE: PIC DID NOT ADEQUATELY PREFLIGHT N1319E, AND CONSEQUENTLY FAILED TO NOTICE THAT THE FUEL TANKS WERE NEARLY EMPTY DUE TO A LEAK EMANATING FROM THE RIGHT WING FUEL STRAINER. THIS CONDITION RENDERED THE AIRPLANE UNAIRWORTHY. AT APPROXIMATELY 1230 CST, PIC DEPARTED WITH A SAFETY PILOT ABOARD IN ORDER TO PRACTICE INSTRUMENT APPROACHES. APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES AFTER TAKEOFF, PIC REPORTED TO ATC THAT, " WE'RE OUT OF FUEL," AND AN OFF AIRPORT LANDING WAS ACCOMPLISHED. AVIATION FUEL WAS DISPENSED INTO THE AIRPLANE'S LEFT TANK AND THE FUEL SELECTOR VALVE POSITIONED TO THE LEFT TANK, AND THE AIRPLANE WAS FLOWN BACK TO LXT. ACCORDING TO THE SAFETY PILOTS LOGBOOK, HE WAS PILOT IN COMMAND FOR THE FLIGHT TO LXT. INCIDENT^PRIVACY DATA^IS CLOSED.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System.

Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
