Aircraft on the NTSB record: Piper PA 32-300 · serial 32-40917

Fuel starvation due to the deterioration of the fuel selector valve, which allowed fuel to be fed from only the right tip tank. Contributing to the accident was the inadequate annual inspection, which failed to detect the deteriorated valve.
