## Narrative

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

AT FL330, THE AIRCRAFT ENCOUNTERED SEVERE TURBULANCE AND EXPERIENCED A 2000 FOOT ALTITUDE GAIN. NO CREW INJURIES REPORTED. DURING DESCENT TWO PASSENGERS REPORTED INJURIES.AFTER ARRIVAL AT GATE, EMS MET AIRCRAFT, AND BOTH PASSENGERS WERE ABLE TO WALK OFF AIRCRAFT.

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.
