## Narrative

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

(-23)SHUT DOWN RIGHT ENGINE DUE TO LOW OIL PRESSURE NOTICED AFTER A WARNING LIGHT BLINKED ON THE ANNUNCIATOR PANEL. OIL PRESSURE INITIALLY WENT JUST BELOW THE GREEN AND LATER DROPPED TOWARD THE RED LINE.  AT THAT TIME THE CREW SHUT DOWN THE ENGINE.  N6TM CONTINUED FROM FL350 AND 200 NM WEST OF BHM, DECLARED AN EMERGENCY, THEN LANDED AT BHM WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT.  DISCOVERED FAILED ON OIL FILLER CAP THAT CAUSED LOSS OIL.

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.
