Read the full NTSB narrative

THE AIRCRAFT COLLIDED WITH A TREE STUMP DURING A FORCED LANDING AFTER THE ENGINE QUIT DURING ENTRY INTO THE TRAFFIC PATTERN. WHEN THE ENGINE STOPPED THE PILOT FELT HE COULD NOT MAKE THE AIRPORT AND CHOSE A FIELD TO LAND IN TO AVOID TREES ON THE FINAL APPROACH TO THE AIRPORT. DURING THE LANDING ROLLOUT, THE ACFT HIT A TREE STUMP AND NOSED OVER. INVESTIGATION SHOWED THE RIGHT FUEL TANK WAS EMPTY AND THE LEFT TANK CONTAINED ABOUT ONE GALLON OF FUEL. THE PILOT SAID HE THOUGHT THE ACFT HAD LONG RANGE FUEL TANKS. THOSE TANKS PROVIDE ABOUT 12 MORE GALLONS OF FUEL. THEY WERE NOT INSTALLED IN THIS ACFT. THE ACCIDENT ACFT HAD FLOWN ABOUT 4 HOURS AFTER IT WAS RETURNED.
