## Narrative

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

WHILE EXECUTING AN EMERGENCY LANDING AT CHESAPEAKE REGIONAL AIRPORT (CPK) DUE TO AN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILURE AND ROUGH RUNNING ENGINE, THE AIRCRAFT LANDING GEAR COLLAPSED UPON LANDING BECAUSE IT HAD NOT FULLY EXTENDED.

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.
