## Narrative

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

(-23) RATED PILOT WHO WAS RECEIVING RECURRENCY TRAINING TAXIED OFF TAXI WAY ONTO RUNWAY AND STOPPED, POWERED UP AND RELEASED THE BRAKES. THE AIRCRAFT WENT IMMEDIATELY TO THE RIGHT, OFF THE RUNWAY, THROUGH A SNOW BANK. FLIGHT INSTRUCTOR FAILED TO ARREST UNCONTROLLED EXCURSION OFF RUNWAY. BOTH PROPS AND BOTH ENGINES WERE DAMAGED. NOSE GEAR STEERING, RUDDER, RUDDER MOVEMENT, AND AIRCRAFT BRAKES CHECKED NORMAL AFTER 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.
