Aircraft on the NTSB record: Piper PA-23-250 · operated under 091
The flight instructor’s failure to abort the takeoff following a loss of left engine power due to fuel starvation. Also causal was the inadequate maintenance of the left fuel cap by unknown maintenance personnel, which resulted in a blockage of the fuel supply from the left-wing tank. Contributing to the accident was the instructor’s failure to maintain airspeed above the one-engine-inoperative minimum controllable airspeed after deciding to continue the takeoff.
