## Narrative

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

(-23) PILOT WAS TAXIING HIS BEECH BARON THROUGH AN AIRCRAFT TIEDOWN AREA FOR TAKEOFF FOR A LOCAL FLIGHT. A CESSNA 414 PARKED SUCH THAT THE NOSE OF THE AIRCRAFT STUCK OUT INTO THE TAXIWAY MORE THAN THE OTHER PARKED AIRCRAFT. THERE WAS ENOUGH ROOM FOR THE BARON TO TAXI THROUGH, HOWEVER THE PILOT WOULD HAVE TO TAXI ABOUT TWO FEET OFF THE TAXIWAY CENTERLINE. THERE WERE PERSONS WORKING ON AN AIRCRAFT PARKED OPPOSITE THE CESSNA 414. THE PILOT TAXIED ON CENTERLINE AND THE RIGHT WINGTIP OF THE BARON STRUCK THE NOSE OF THE CESSNA 414 CAUSING MINOR DAMAGE TO THE CESSNA 414.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System.

Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
