## Narrative

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

WHILE FLYING IN THE PATTERN NEAR CHINO AIRPORT AT 1400' AGL, THE AIRCRAFT SUDDENLY STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY. THE PILOT IMMEDIATELY THROTTLED THE ENGINE BACK TO IDLE. THE SHAKING DIMINISHED BUT WAS STILL THERE. HE DECLARED AN EMERGENCY AND RETURNED TO CHINO AIRPORT RUNWAY 26R. HE LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT. UPON ENGINE SHUTDOWN  HE SAW THAT HE LOST OVER HALF OF ONE PROPELLER BLADE.

AN SDR WAS SUBMITTED ELECTRONICALLY  (#2020FA0000348).

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.
