## Narrative

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

PILOT NOTICED THAT HIS ELECTRICAL INSTRUMNETS WERE BEGINING TO FAIL WHILE HE WAS IN CRUISE FLIGHT.  HE THEN EXPERIECED TOTAL ELECTRICAL FAILURE AND THE AUTOPILOT KICKED OFF.  THE PILOT PANICED AND LANDED AT GLADWINN AIRPORT GEAR UP.  HE INITIALLY MADE AN ATTEMPT TO MANUALLY LOWER THE GEAR BUT HE WAS UNABLE TO FLY THE AIRCRAFT AND RUN THE EMERGENCY CHECKLIST AT THE SAME TIME.

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.
