NTSB accident and incident record under N5469T
Aircraft on the NTSB record: Piper PA 28R-200 · serial 28R-7235233
The engine failure due to oil starvation, which resulted from the installation of an unapproved oil quick drain valve that subsequently led to the inadvertent draining of the oil when the nose landing gear was retracted. Contributing to the accident was the lack of required warning placards on the engine mounts.
