## Narrative

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

PILOT PLANNED FLIGHT FROM CROSS KEYS AIRPORT (17N) FOR A DIRECT FLIGHT TO BURLINGTON INTERNATIONAL (BTV). AFTER REFUELING AIRCRAFT AT 17N PILOT DEPARTED APPROXIMATELY 5:45PM LOCAL AND SUFFERED ENGINE FAILURE AT APPROXIMATELY 8:00PM LOCAL. PILOT NOTIFIED ATC AND RECEIVED VECTORS TO FLOYD BENNETT MEMORIAL (GFL) WHERE AN UNEVENTFUL LANDING WAS MADE.

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.
