## Narrative

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

(-23)  RETURNING FROM LAKE HAVASU CITY, AZ ON AN IFR, ATC ASKED PILOT TO KEEP AIRSPEED UP AND TURNED THE AIRCRAFT TOWARDS THE AIRPORT SOMEWHAT EARLY.  PILOT REPORTED HE WAS THEN CLEARED TO INTERCEPT THE LOCALIZER FOR PHX RUNWAY 25L BUT NOT CLEARED TO LAND.  SETTING THE AIRCRAFT PROP CONTROLS FOR DESCENT AND THE EMERGENCY.  NO FLAP LANDING CHECKLIST, WAS TOLD THAT THERE WERE 2 AIRCRAFT HOLDING FOR TAKEOFF ON RUNWAY 25L.  PILOT COMMENTED THERE WAS A LOT OF RADIO CHATTER BOTH FROM PHX TOWER AND HIS COMPANY FREQUENCY.

PILOT SECURED AIRCRAFT AND EXITED THE AIRCRAFT UNINJURED.

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.
