## Narrative

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

NARRATIVE: ENGINE FAILURE ON DEPARTURE. THIRTY SECONDS OR LESS FROM RUNWAY DEPARTURE ENGINE QUIT ON CLIMBOUT. EXECUTED EMERGENCY PROCEDURES. EXECUTED OFF FIELD LANDING. LARGE QUANTITY OF WATER DRAINED FROM FUEL SYSTEM.

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.
