## Narrative

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

A PROGRESSIVE ENGINE FAILURE RESULTED IN A FORCED LANDING ON A HIGHWAY EXIT RAMP. ON LANDING THE PILOT VEERED LEFT TO AVOID ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND THE LEFT WING OF THE AIRCRAFT STRUCK A LAMP POST SHEERING OFF THE WINGS AND CAUSING THE AIRCRAFT TO IMPACT A GUARD RAIL AT APPROXIMATELY A 90 DEGREE ANGLE. THE LOCAL FIRE DEPARTMENT HAD TO DEAL WITH FUEL LEAKING FROM THE DAMAGED WINGS AND THE ENGINE STILL CONTAINED 6 QUARTS OF OIL.
