Shortly thereafter, the acft 'banked hard to the left and appeared to stall.' Subsequently, it impacted the gnd in aprx a 20 deg nose dwn, slightly left wing low, attitude. Impact occurred aprx 1000' se fm the dep end of rwy 30R. The fuselage & inbrd wing sections were badly burned. Minimal rotational dmg was fnd on the prop/prop spinner. No preimpact part failure or malfunction was fnd drg an exam ofthe wreckage. However, the 3 psn, aux fuel boost pump sw (installed iaw AD 87-08-05 & Beech sb 2033) was fnd in the hi boost psn.
