## Narrative

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

THE PILOT BECAME DISORIENTED DURING A LOCAL FLIGHT.  DUE TO LOW FUEL, HE ELECTED TO MAKE A PRECAUTIONARY LANDING IN A FIELD.  THE AIRPLANE SUFFERED MINOR DAMAGE ON THE ROLL OUT.  THE PILOT, THE ONLY OCCUPANT, WAS NOT INJURED.

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.
