## Narrative

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

(-23)^PRIVACY DA^, AN INSTRUCTOR PILOT, WAS GIVING A NON-RATED, ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED, INDIVIDUAL INSTRUCTION. ^PRIVACY DAT^, OWNER OF THE AIRCRAFT, WAS ON HIS THIRD INSTRUCTIONAL FLIGHT AND WAS PRACTICING A POWER STALL AT ABOUT 1700 FEET AGL.  WHEN ^PRIVACY DAT^ APPLIED POWER TO RECOVER FROM THE STALL THE ENGINE CEASED TO RESPOND AND STOPPED RUNNING.  ^PRIVACY DA^ TOOK CONTROL OF THE AIRCRAFT, LOCATED SUITABLE LANDING AREA, ATTEMPTED (UNSECCESFULLY) TO RE-START THE ENGINE, MADE A "MAY-DAY" CALL, AND EXECUTED A LANDINGINTO A PASTURE WHICH WAS WITHIN THEIR GLIDING DISTANCE.  THERE WAS NO INJURY TO PERSONS, ONLY MINOR DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT, AND LITTLE DAMAGE TO PROPERTY (TWO SMALL SECTIONS OF FENCE WHICH THE AIRPLANE WENT THROUGH ON LANDING). ^PRIVACY DA^ DID AN OUTSTANDING JOB OF LANDING THE AIRPLANE IN A VERY RESTRICED AREA.  NO CORRECTIVE ACTION IS PLANED CONCERNING REEVALUATING ^PRIVACY DAT^ PROFICIENCY OR ABILITY.  HOWEVER, AN EIR IS BEING OPENED TO INVESTIGATE THE A&P MECHANIC WHO IMPROPERLY INSTALLED AN AIR FILTER WHICH, MOST LIKELY CAUSED THE ENGINE TO FAIL.

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.
