## Narrative

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

NARRATIVE: AT 13,000 FEET LEVEL FLIGHT FROM MEB TO GQN AT ABOUT 9 MINUTES FROM ACY LOST #1 COM THEN RIGHT ALTERNATOR FAILURE LIGHT ILLUMINATED, BUT THE ALTERNATOR WAS STILL CARRYING LOAD. RIGHT ENGINE QUIT SHORTLY AFTER FAILURE LIGHT. DECLARED AN EMERGENCY AND LANDED AT ACY. AS TAXIING OFF RUNWAY TO MID ATLANTIC JET, THE LEFT ENGINE QUIT. PILOT WAS COUNSELED.

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.
