## Narrative

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

(-23) MR. AUGUST STATED THAT WHILE FLYING THE AIRCRAFT THE ENGINE STARTED TO RUN VERY ROUGH. HE LOOKED AT THE INSTRUMENTS AND NOTICED THAT THE EGT GAUGE WAS READING "0", THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO RUN ROUGH SO HE STARTED TO LOOK FOR A PLACE TO LAND THE AIRCRAFT. HE LANDED THE AIRCRAFT IN A SOD FIELD. NO DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT AFTER THE LANDING. CAUSE OF ENGINE ROUGHNESS IS UNKNOWN. ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^

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.
