## Narrative

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

(-23) AIRCRAFT TOOK OFF FROM PALM SPRINGS, RUNWAY 31 LEFT. AIRCRAFT FAILED TO PRODUCE ENOUGH POWER TO SUSTAIN FLIGHT AND PILOT LANDED AIRCRAFT IN FIELD JUST TO THE WEST OF RUNWAY.

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.
