## Narrative

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

NARRATIVE: THE PILOT STRUCK FENCING AROUND THE HELIPAD WITH THE TAIL ROTOR LANDING. THE PILOT WAS REQUIRED TO ATTEND REMEDIAL TRAINING FOLLOWING THE INCIDENT. THE REMEDIAL TRAINING WAS DONE BY THE OPERATOR FOLLOWED BY A 135 CHECKRIDE.

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.
