A Cessna 414 Chancellor lost its left engine during an aborted takeoff at Enstone and later lost its right engine in the climb after takeoff. The pilot attempted a forced landing, but the aircraft hit farm buildings and caught fire, destroying part of a poultry farm. The pilot had minor burns and the passenger was seriously injured, and the AAIB concluded a fuel supply disruption was the most likely cause of both engine stoppages.
