## Narrative

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

THE AIRCRAFT WAS CRUISING AT FL400 WHEN IT ENCOUNTERED TURBULENCE AND HIGHER THAN STANDARD AIR TEMPERATURE RESULTING IN A LOSS OF AIRSPEED THAT REQUIRED AN IMMEDIATE DESCENT. THE PILOT INFORMED ATC WHICH ISSUED A VECTOR (20 DEGREES RIGHT) AND CLEARANCE TO A LOWER ALTITUDE TO AVOID CONFLICT WITH OTHER TRAFFIC. CLOSEST LOSS OF SEPARATION: 3.67NM/200FT.

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.
