## Narrative

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

(-23) THE PILOT STATED THE ENGINE BEGAN TO RUN ROUGH THEN IT QUIT RUNNING, HE SELECTED A HIGH SCHOOL FIELD AS AN EMERGENCY LANDING SITE. THE AIRCRAFT WAS LANDED SAFELY WITH NO DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT OR PROPERTY ON THE GROUND. A THOROUGH INSPECTION WAS PERFORMED ON THE AIRCRAFT BY THE FAA, AND IT WAS DETERMINED THE LEFT WING WAS COMPLETELY DRY OF FUEL AND THE RIGHT TANK WAS WITHIN 2 INCHES OF BEING FULL OF FUEL. AN ENGINE RUN UP WILL BE PERFORMED WITHIN THE NEXT FEW DAYS TO DETERMINE THE EXACT CAUSE OF FAILURE. AT THIS TIME ALL LEADS INDICATE ENGINE FAILURE DUE TO FUEL STARVATION.
