## Narrative

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

(-23) A THREE PERSON MAINTENANCE CREW WAS TAXIING AIRCRAFT TO AN OVERNIGHT PARKING SPOT.  THE PIC WAS NOT SURE IF THE AIRCRAFT WOULD FIT INTO THE PARKING SPOT SO HE SENT THE 'RIGHT SEAT' OUT TO MARSHALL HIM.  THE GROUND MARSHALL 9RIGHT SEAT0 GAVE THE PIC A "ALL CLEAR" SIGN AND STARTED TURNING THE AIRCRAFT TO THE LEFT.  THE RIGHT WING HIT A PARKED DECKLOADER.

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.
