## Narrative

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

NARRATIVE: PILOT REPORTED THAT THE WEATHER AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT WAS CLEAR, NO RESTRICTIONS TO VISIBILITY, TEMPERATURE BOUT 25 DEGREES F. AND WINDS LIGHT AND VARIABLE, ALTIMETER 30.01. THE PILOT TRIED TO LAND IN A RESIDENTIAL CUL-DE-SAC WHEN HE REALIZED THERE WASN'T ENOUGH ROOM TO LAND HE TRIED TO GAIN ALTITUDE AND CAME INTO CONTACT WITH A HOUSE AND A GARAGE. HE THEN MADE AN UNEVENTFUL LANDING IN AN OPEN FIELD. THE PILOT STATED THAT WEATHER WAS NO FACTOR IN THIS INCIDENT, THE AREA HE CHOSE TO LAND AT WAS JUST TOO SMALL.

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.
