## Narrative

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

NARRATIVE: DURING ROLL-OUT, AFTER LANDING ON RUNWAY 21, THE AIRCRAFT EXITED TO THE LEFT. THE LEFT WING TIP DROPPED AND STRUCK THE TAXIWAY INDICATOR LIGHT. THERE WERE NO INJURIES TO THE PILOT. THE INVESTIGATION REVEALED THAT THERE WAS ONLY MINOR DAMAGE TO THE LEFT WING TIP. THIS IS A FINAL REPORT.

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.
