## Narrative

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

(-23) ^PRIVACY DATA ^ WHILE TAXIING OUT FOR DEPARTURE THE PILOT IN COMMAND WAS TURNING THE AIRCRAFT ONTO TAXIWAY BRAVO AT THE BRAVO FOUR INTERSECTION AND THE RIGHT MAIN LANDING GEAR WENT OFF THE TAXIWAY INTO THE GRASS. THE PILOT IN COMMAND POWERED THE AIRCRAFT BACK ONTO THE TAXIWAY. COMPANY MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL ABOARD THE FLIGHT INSPECTED THE LANDING GEAR AFTER MUD WAS WASHED OFF AND DETERMINED THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE GEAR. THE FLIGHT DEPARTED WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT. THIS INCIDENT IS CLOSED WITH THIS REPORT.

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.
