## Narrative

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

(-23) AFTER LANDING ON RWY 6 AT HICKORY REGIONAL AIRPORT, ATC INSTRUCTED N141FL TO TAXI TO THE GENERAL AVIATION RAMP VIA LEFT TURN ON TAXIWAY ALPHA (A), RIGHT TURN ON BRAVO (B) AND RIGHT TURN ON B1. PILOT IN COMMAND STATED THAT WHILE TAXIING ON BRAVO, HIS RIGHT WING CAME IN CONTACT WITH THE TAIL OF A LEARJET 25 PARKED ON THE GENERAL AVIATION RAMP.

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.
