## Narrative

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

NARRATIVE: INFLIGHT AT FL370, 30 MINUTES OUT OF MSP, THE LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE PILOT SHUT THE ENGINE DOWN AND LANDED AT MSP WITH NO FURTHER INCIDENT. AN EMERGENCY WAS NOT DECLARED. MAINTENANCE FOUND THAT THE OIL FILTER "O"-RING FAILED DUE TO BEING CUT DURING INSTALLATION.

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.
