From the FAA’s Accident/Incident Data System (AIDS), through its Aviation Safety Information Portal, as reported. The NTSB investigates accidents separately, and its record of an accident is the fuller one. The aircraft is matched to the registry 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.
What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
Pilot stated that during straight and level flight, at 1,000 feet altitude, he reduced the throttle to idle. The engine came to a complete stop. Pilot stated that he had no way to restart the engine in flight because the airplane has no electrical system or starter. Due to his low altitude, the pilot stated he did not have enough altitude to attempt an air-start.
