## Narrative

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

NARRATIVE: THE PILOT WAS TAXIING A CESSNA 172 ON LEARJET'S TAXIWAY, GOING SOUTH FROM THE FACTORY. A LEARJET WAS PARKED WEST OF THE TAXIWAY DOING A MAINTENANCE RUNUP. THE THRUST FROM THE LEARJET LIFTED THE RIGHT WING OF THE CESSNA AND BLEW IT INTO THE GRASS. THE AIRCRAFT RECEIVED MINOR DAMAGE TO ITS PROP AND WHEELPANTS. THE PILOT WAS NOT INJURED.

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.
