## Narrative

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

THE PILOT-IN COMMAND WAS TRAVELING FROM LEWIS UNIVERSITY AIRPORT (KLOT) TO WHITESIDE AIRPORT (KSQI).  THE PIC BELIEVED THAT HE HAD ENOUGH FUEL TO MAKE A STOP AT AURORA AIRPORT (KARR).  THE PIC TOOK OFF FROM LEWIS UNIVERSITY AT APPROXIMATELY 1715 CDT.  AT APPROXIMATELY 6.6 MILES FROM AURORA AIRPORT (ARR) THE ENGINE STOPPED FROM FUEL STARVATION AND THE PIC WAS FORCED TO LAND IN A FIELD.  UPON LANDING IN A FIELD THE PLANE FLIPPED OVER AND CAME TO REST UPSIDE DOWN. THERE WERE NO INJURIES TO PILOT OR PASSENGER AND MINIMAL DAMAGE WAS DONE TO THE EXPERIMENTAL AIRCRAFT.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
