## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

NARRATIVE: MR. REEVES TOOK OFF FROM CAMPBELL AIRFIELD GOING TO THUN AIRFIELD (PIERCE COUNTY AIRPORT), "WHEN I GOT JUST ABOUT TO ISSAQUAH, AND MY ALTITUDE WAS ABOUT 900 TO 1000 FEET, WHEN THE ENGINE BLEW A CYLINDER AND STARTED TO VIBRATE. I SAW A LARGE FIELD AND MADE AN EMERGENCY LANDING. LUCKY FOR ME, THE FIELD HAD JUST BEEN MOWED. SO, AFTER I LANDED, I TAXIED UP TO THE FENCE AND GATE NEAR THE ROAD AND SHUT THE ENGINE OFF. I FOUND NUMBER SIX CYLINDER HAD BLOWN" SAID MR. REEVES.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
