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.

On 09/20/2019 flying pilot and non flying pilot decided to go on a cross country flight to build time. They departed dupage airport (dpa) on a clear and calm day. Milwaukee approach was contacted and gave them instructions to fly over runway 31 at 3000 ft and do a right traffic pattern for runway 20R. After some time that had passed both noticed the RPM dropping. Non flying pilot grab the throttle and applied full power but the RPM kept dropping. They contacted mke and requested priority landing due to engine was quitting. Non flying pilot performed the engine failure checklist. They were cleared to land runway 1R, they were high and fast. Flying pilot applied flaps and they had a rough landing touched down and bounced back into the air. They applied breaks but is was not enough so they ran off the end of runway about 100 ft.
