## Narrative

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

11/24/2019 AT APPROXIMATELY 15:57 CDT AIRCRAFT N1821 HAD ENGINE LOSS OF POWER AND MADE A PRECAUTIONARY LANDING IN PORTLAND, TENNESSEE. THE PILOT STATED THAT THE N2/NR STARTED TO DECREASE RAPIDLY. HE THEN AUTO- ROTATED, ADDED POWER, AND LANDED THE AIRCRAFT SAFELY, WITH POWER IN A FIELD. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND NO DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT. THERE WAS A PATIENT ON- BOARD THE AIRCRAFT.

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.
