## Narrative

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

(-23) AIRCRAFT WAS TAXIING TO THE RAMP AREA. AT APPROXIMATELY 60 DEGREES INTO A 90 DEGREE TURN ONTO THE RAMP AREA. THE LEFT HAND WING STRUCK TWO GROUND POWER CARTS. DAMAGE WAS TO THE LEF TIP AND OUTBOARD LEADING EDGE OF THE WING. THE M20C HAS THE LANDING/TAXI LIGHT CENTERLINE WITH THE NOSE GEAR. THE PILOT STATED THAT HE WAS UNABLE TO SEE THE GROUND EQUIPMENT UNTIL IMMEDIATELY BEFORE IMPACT.

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.
