On October 6, 2019, about 0835 central daylight time, a Beechcraft B36TC airplane, N36LS, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near Ranger, Texas. The pilot and three passengers were not injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight. The pilot reported that, during the soft field takeoff roll, he advanced the throttle and confirmed normal power indications on the gauges. As the airplane accelerated, he noted 50 knots indicated airspeed and increasing, until it reached 70 knots, when he applied back pressure on the yoke and rotated. The airplane lifted off and flew over the runway in ground effect. While in ground effect, he noticed that the airplane stopped accelerating and felt "mushy," but the engine was still producing power. He added that he “did not hear or feel any pops, bangs, vibrations, smells, or otherwise that would have triggered [him] to believe that it was an immediate total engine power failure.” The airspeed indicator showed about 70 knots and was slowly decreasing. The pilot identified a field to the left of the runway and banked left about 15 to 20°, he heard the stall warning horn activate, then heard the underside of the airplane contact some small trees. The airplane landed hard in the field, impacted trees, and came to rest upright. The landing gear remained extended during the entire sequence. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the fuselage and left wing. A postaccident examination revealed that the fuel pump was OFF, which is the setting prescribed in the airplane’s takeoff procedures. About 25 gallons of fuel was recovered from right tank and the left tank was empty, as it was breached from the impact sequence. The airplane was equipped with a JPI engine data monitor (EDM) 900. Data retrieved from the unit revealed that, during the accident takeoff, the engine speed reached about 2,700 rpm, the engine manifold pressure was 35.2 inches of mercury (inHg), and the fuel flow reached 40.5 gph. A review of the previous three flights showed that the fuel flow regularly reached 38 to 40 gph during takeoff. The airplane flight manual stated that at 2,700 rpm and 36.0 inHg, the maximum fuel flow is 34.2 gph. The engine was prepared and secured on a trailer for a functional test run. The avionics and engine monitor had been previously removed and were not reinstalled for the test run. The instrument panel did not feature any backup instruments to reference. The fuel pump was used to prime the engine and it started normally. The engine ran for 7 minutes. The throttle was advanced to full power four consecutive times and the engine produced full power. The engine was allowed to run at full power for 30 to 45 seconds each time. Every time the throttle reached the full forward position, the turbocharger engaged and was noticeably audible from inside the cockpit. The auxiliary fuel pump was set to LOW and OFF during the engine run and produced the same results for each setting. Additionally, during the test run, the pump was briefly set to HIGH with no anomalies noted. The engine did not exhibit any anomalies during the test run that would have prevented a normal production of power.
