## Narrative

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

(-23) THE PILOT LANDED ON RUNWAY 28 AND WAS CLEARED BY THE TOWER TO TAXI ON A3 AND TO CONTINUE EAST OF THE MAIN TERMINAL BUILDING TO THE EAST TERMINAL RAMP. THE PILOT HEARD MONTGOMERY TOWER INFORM A NORTHWEST AIRLINES REGIONAL JET LOCATED ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE MAIN TERMINAL TO GIVE WAY TO THE TAXIING AIRCRAFT ON THE TAXIWAY ON FREQUENCY 119.70. PRIOR TO PASSING IN FRONT OF THE NORTHWEST AIRCRAFT AND WITHOUT WARNING THE REAR LFT SIDE OF THE AIRCRAFT RAISED UP AND TOWARD THE FRONT RIGHT. THE RIGHT WING TIP DIPPED DOWN AND DRAGGED ALONG THE GROUND AND THE PROPELLER STRUCK THE GROUND TWICE AND THE ENGINE STOPPED. THE AIRCRAFT THEN SETTLED BACK UPRIGHT ON ITS LANDING GEAR. THE TOWER THEN ASKED IF HE NEEDED ASSISTANCE AND HE INFORMED THEM THAT HE REQUIRED A TOW TO THE EAST RAMP. BREAKAWAY THRUST FROM THE NW AIRCRAFT IS BELIEVED TO BE THE CAUSE.

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.
