## Narrative

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

WHILE ON APPROACH TO HYI THE PILOT ATTEMPTED TO ADD POWER. THE ENGINE DID NOT RESPOND RESULTING IN A LOSS OF ALTITUDE AND FAILURE TO REACH THE INTENDED RUNWAY. THE AIRCRAFT LANDED SHORT OF THE RUNWAY WITH ENOUGH VELOCITY TO ROLL ONTO THE THRESHOLD. ONCE ON THE THRESHOLD THE ENGINE QUIT.

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.
