# NTSB investigations: Fairchild 6-440 series: Loss of engine power(total) - nonmechanical

NTSB aviation accident and incident investigations since 1962: the probable cause, findings, aircraft, crew, weather and docket of each, linked to the FAA registry and the FAA’s own reports.

## Latest cases

- [NTSB FTW93LA264](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/FTW93LA264.md): Fairchild M-62A · San Antonio, TX · Accident · Minor injuries · Limited investigation · Final report · Sep 23, 1993 · N261A · Substantial damage
  > Fuel starvation induced power loss due to the pilot's improper fuel tank selection and his failure to switch tanks after the power loss. A factor was the lack of suitable terrain onto which a forced landing could be executed.
- [NTSB FTW85LA082](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/FTW85LA082.md): Fairchild M-62A · San Antonio, TX · Accident · Serious injuries · Limited investigation · Final report · Dec 21, 1984 · N48252 · Substantial damage
  > A total pwr loss was experienced while manuevering over an airport at about 250 ft AGL. The acft collided with rough terrain during the forced landing. Visual inspection of the acft fuel system indicated that the pwr loss was due to fuel exhaustion.
