## Narrative

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

(-23) THE PILOT INITIATED A TAXI AND SINCE THE AIRCRAFT WAS SITUATED ON THE RAMP SIDE OF THE YELLOW TAXI LINE THE PILOT PERFORMED A SQUARED OFF LEFT TURN AWAY FROM THE FBO BUILDING TO AVOID CHOCKS BEHIND THE NOSEWHEEL. SHORTLY AFTER THE AIRCRAFT HAD COMPLETED THE LEFT TURN THE CREW HEARD AND FELT A BUMP CONSISTENT WITH TAXIING OVER CHOCKS. AFTER THE PILOT BROUGHT THE AIRPLANE TO A STOP THE CABIN SERVER WENT TO THE COCKPIT AND INFORMED THE CREW THAT THE RIGHT WINGLET HAD STRUCK THE PROTRUDING OVERHANG OF THE FBO TERMINAL BUILDING.

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.
