## Narrative

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

(-23) ON FEBRUARY 2, 2000, AT 1610 LOCAL TIME HELICOPTER N76898 SUFFERED DAMAGE TO MAIN ROTOR BLADES WHILE TAXIING FROM FUELING LOCATION TO PARKING SPOT AT WEST 30TH. ST. HELIPORT. THERE WERE NO INJURIES TO ANYONE, EITHER ON THE AIRCRAFT, OR ON THE GROUND. AIRCRAFT DAMAGE WAS LIMITED TO ROTOR BLADE TIPS.

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.
