Analysis
A student pilot carrying a passenger landed to refuel. Unaware of the procedure to acquire fuel at this location, he took off for another airport. The engine quit on climb-out and the aircraft was substantially damaged when it landed short of the runway. No useable fuel was found in the aircraft's tanks.
