## Narrative

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

AIRCRAFT MADE AN EMERGENCY LANDING AT MESA GATEWAY AIRPORT DUE TO THE LOSS OF ENGINE OIL PRESSURE.  AIRCRAFT GLIDED TO THE AIRPORT OUT OF 110 AND LANDED WITHOUT FURTHER 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.
