I'm trying to create a simple model that first selects flood alert areas by area then exports the selection as a feature class:

The result however is missing all attributes:

It should look like this:

which is the output if you were to do it manually instead: select by location>right click layer>data>export features
so it uses the same geoprocessing tools (Select by Location and Feature Class To Feature Class) but the ModelBuilder version is producing data without all the attributes.
