## Narrative

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

AT APPROXIMATELY 1730 LOCAL TIME A CESSNA CE-150J, N61176 WAS INBOUND TO FORBES FIELD, KS (FOE) WHEN THE AIRCRAFT ENCOUNTERED A LOSS OF POWER AND MADE AN EMERGENCY LANDING OFF-FIELD ON US HIGHWAY 24 ABOUT 8-10 MILES NORTHWEST OF FOE.  THERE WERE NO INJURIES OR DAMAGE TO AIRCRAFT.  ENGINE, FLIGHT CONTROLS, AND SYSTEMS CHECKS REVEALED NO MECHANICAL ABNORMALITIES.  A MINIMUM AMOUNT OF FUEL WAS NOTED ON BOARD THE AIRCRAFT AT THE TIME OF ENGINE FAILURE.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS SERVICED WITH FUEL AND NORMAL ENGINE CHECKS WERE CONDUCTED WITH  SATISFACTORY RESULTS.  A CERTIFIED MECHANIC RETURNED THE AIRCRAFT TO SERVICE WITH NO FURTHER INCIDENT.

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.
