## Narrative

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

(-23)DECLARED AN EMERGENCY BECAUSE OF ENGINE FAILURE. LANDED AT GARBERVILLE, CA (O16) AIRPORT WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System.

Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
