## Narrative

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

(-23) BSAA FLIGHT 2565, BILLINGS, MONTANA, TO GILLETTE, WYOMING. RETURNED TO BILLINGS WITH HIGH OIL TEMPERATURE. THE CREW NOTED A HIGH TEMPERATURE ON CLIMB AND SHUT DOWN THE RIGHT ENGINE. MAINTENANCE REPLACED OIL TEMPERATURE BULB, REPAIRED CANNON PLUG AND REPLACED VERNATHERM. GROUND RUN AND CHECK, OK.

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.
