Accident & incident history

1. ERA21LA127Feb 9, 2021Thonotosassa, FLMinor

   The pilot’s failure to apply adequate torque on the fuel pressure line aluminum adaptor fitting, which resulted in the loosening of the adapter, a loss of fuel flow, and a total loss of engine power. Contributing to the accident was the pilot’s choice of a soft aluminum automotive fitting, and the design, which required hand-tightening with a shortened, modified wrench that prevented a measured torque application.
