What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.

According to the PIC, at approximately 500-800FT AGL the aircraft stopped producing power. Pilot stated the first indication of loss of power was a drop in EGT from the jpi engine monitor. The pilot made a turn to the east attempting to return to the airport.
