## Narrative

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

(-23) N3347F, A CESSNA CE-182 WAS FACING NORTH, AND STOPPED ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE WEST (NORTH-SOUTH) TAXIWAY AT THE FRIDAY HARBOR AIRPORT, WHEN N53201 COLLIDED WITH IT WHILE TAXING SOUTHBOUND. THE PIC OF N53201 STATED THAT HE WAS DISTRACTED BY ANOTHER A/C PARKED ADJACENT TO N3347F AT THE FUEL ISLAND, AND ANOTHER A/C BEHIND N3347F THAT WAS TAXIING NORTHBOUND. WITNESSES STATED THE N53201 APPEARED TO BE TAXIING FASTER THAN A NORMAL SPEED AND THAT THERE WAS SUFFICIENT ROOM TO SAFELY MANUEVER BETWEEN THE TWO PARKED A/C.
