## Narrative

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

(-23) ON JULY 6, 2005 A PIPER PA-24-260 LANDED AT THE OCEAN CITY MUNICIPAL AIRPORT (26N) FOR A PLEASURE FLIGHT. AFTER LANDING ON RUNWAY 6, THE PILOT ^PRIVACY DATA OMITT^ TAXIED TO THE END OF THIS RUNWAY AND THEN TURNED ONTO TAXIWAY A. WHILE THIS AIRCRAFT TAXIED TO THE RAMP, IT STUCK TWO PLASTIC BARRIERS THAT WERE POSITIONED PARALLEL TO THE TAXIWAY. THE PILOT STATED THAT DUE TO THEIR POSITION, IT WAS DIFFICULT TO SEE THEM. THE AIRCRAFT SUSTAINED MINOR DAMAGE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES REPORTED. INSPECTION OF THIS AIRCRAFT CONFIRMED THE DAMAGE. ALTHOUGH THIS OCCURRENCE IS NOT LISTED AS AN AIRCRAFT ACCIDENT, ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^ AIRPORT MANAGER, COMPLETED AN AIRCRAFT ACCIDENT REPORT (FORM DA-23). THIS MATTER IS CLOSED.

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.
