## Probable cause

the pilot's decision to exhaust the fuel supply in the selected tank in-flight, and his failure to maintain the minimum stall speed during engine out conditions.  This resulted in a complete loss of engine power and the inadvertent stall and impact with the ground.  A factor in this accident was the inadequate altitude in which the pilot exhausted the fuel.
