## Narrative

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

(-23) AT 2216E JANUARY 30, 2003, MASA AIRCRAFT N839MJ, AN EMB-145-LR FLIGHT #5825, WHILE FULLY LOADED AT THE GATE WAS STRUCK BY A PSA LAV TRUCK, DAMAGING THE LEFT WING TIP. PASSENGERS WERE DEPLANED VIA THE STAIRS AND PUT ON ANOTHER AIRCRAFT. REPORT SAID THAT DAMAGE WAS LIMITED TO SCRAPES AND NO INJURIES WERE REPORTED.

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.
