Sequence of events
NTSB’s coding before 2008: each occurrence and phase of flight, and the causes and factors under it. The codes are defined in NTSB’s coding manual.
Analysis
The plt reported that the right fuel tank went dry when the fuel gage indicated it had 6 gal remaining. He switched fuel tanks, & shortly thereafter, the left tank emptied when the gage indicated it had 13 gal remaining. He tried to land in a pasture, but was unable to reach it, so he landed gear-up in a bean field.
