Read the full NTSB narrative

WHILE TRYING OUT HIS FRIEND'S NEWLY PURCHASED TWIN, THE PILOT STATED AN EMERGENCY LANDING WAS MADE DUE TO POWER LOSS BECAUSE OF FUEL STARVATION. THE PIC SAID HE WAS NEGLIGENT BECAUSE HE DID NOT POSSESS A MULTIENGINE RATING AND ALSO DID NOT STUDY THE FUEL SYSTEM. THE FUEL SELECTORS WERE FOUND ON THE EMPTY MAIN TANKS, WHILE FUEL WAS STILL AVAILABLE FROM BOTH AUX TANKS. THE ACFT WAS SUBSTANTIALLY DAMAGED, AND THE PLT AND PAX WERE NOT INJURED.
