## Narrative

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

ON MARCH 6, 2025, AT 11:42 HOURS, A CESSNA 152 WAS INVOLVED IN AN INCIDENT DURING A DECENT INTO VICTORIA REGIONAL AIRPORT IN VICTORIA, TEXAS. DURING THE DECENT, THE PILOT REALIZED THAT THE AIRCRAFT WAS LOW ON FUEL AND DETERMINED THEY WERE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO MAKE IT TO THE AIRPORT. THE PILOT LOCATED AN OPEN FIELD AND CONTINUED DECENT TO LAND IN THE FIELD. UPON LANDING, THE AIRCRAFT WAS LANDED SAFELY WITH NO DAMAGE OR INJURIES.

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.
