What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) Mr. Hanes stated that he was flying his aircraft from tucson, AZ to burbvank, CA and enroute approximately 30 miles east of Burbank airport (bur) when approach control asked him to deviate toward the south. He explained to them that he'd rather not go FAR off a direct course to bur because fuel may be a problem. He did not declare an emergency or priority handling. During the telephone interview with Mr. Haynes, I found his preflight planning and his flight performance apparently satisfactory. He landed with more than the regulatory requirements for VFR reserves. There was no apparent compromise with safety in this incident and this file is being closed with no further action nor comment.
