## Narrative

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

(-23)OCT 10, 2000 AT 1215 PDT PILATUS N555EW WAS TAXING ON THE RAMP AT VGT-NORTH LAS VEGAS, NV AND WHILE FOLLOWING THE YELLOW TAXI STRIP ON THE RAMP, THE LEFT WINGTIP OF THE PILATUS STRUCK THE TAIL OF A PARKED CESSNA CITATION N1NL. DAMAGE WAS MINOR AND ^PRIVACY DATA ^ OF NTSB DETERMINED THIS TO BE A GROUND INCIDENT.

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.
