THE PILOT TURNED BACK TOWARD KADS AND DECLARED AN EMERGENCY. AFTER LANDING AT KADS, THE PILOT SHUT DOWN THE ENGINE AND WAS TOWED BACK TO THE HANGAR. THE AIRCRAFT WAS BEING OPERATED UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF 14 CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS PART 91. VISUAL METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS PREVAILED AT THE TIME OF THE 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.
