From the FAA’s Accident/Incident Data System (AIDS), through its Aviation Safety Information Portal, as reported. The NTSB investigates accidents separately, and its record of an accident is the fuller one. The aircraft is matched to the registry 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.

What happened

The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.

(-23) Pilot turned off runway 27 after landing at the Oshkosh airport. Pilot was directed by the ground marshaller to stop his forward movement to allow another aircraft to pass. Marshaller later directed accident aircraft to continue to parking, whereby aircraft made a 90 degree turn into a large rubber runway marker and runway light. Pilot failed to make a visual clearing turn prior to proceeding to taxi. Propeller hit object and broke apart - no injuries.
