Narrative:

During visual approach from jln, mo, to stl, mo, about 1 hour 5 min flight, I had to perform an in-flight engine shutdown (right engine) due to loss of oil pressure. Shutdown was executed within the final 10 mins of the flight to stl. The aircraft had a history of right engine probsecond officeril leaks. I, myself, wrote it up twice in the same day. Landed in stl without incident.
