What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) The pilot contacted the dvt tower for landing and was asked to remain outside the class 'd' airspace. After about 5 minutes, the a/c was cleared to proceed straight into runway 7L. While on final approach, the pilot reported a loss of power to the tower. The a/c was cleared to land on the closest runway, runway 07R. A/c was unable to glide to the runway and collided with ground obstacles during a forced landing about one mile short of the runway. The a/c's left flap, about one foot outboard of the wing root, hit a power pole and wires. The left main wheel was separated from the a/c possibly by striking power lines. The a/c burned extensively after impact. At this time, no casual factors are known.
