## Narrative

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

ON FEBRUARY 15 2021, APPROXIMATELY 1918 CENTRAL DAYLIGHT TIME, A EUROCOPTER EC130B4, ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^, OPERATING UNDER PART 135, MADE AN PRECAUTIONARY LANDING IN A FIELD APPROXIMATELY 7 MILES SOUTH EAST OF TULSA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT FOR A MAIN GEARBOX PRESSURE LIGHT.  NO INJURIES OR DAMAGED REPORTED.  MAIN GEARBOX PRESSURE SWITCH WAS CLEANED AND AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.

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.
