What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) Statement of PIC: my wife and I are the registered owners of N58KM, a 1974 Piper PA23 aztec e. last night, January 15, 2007, I was pilot in command of an international flight that terminated at the customs ramp. Afterwards, around dusk, I repositioned the aircraft to the front of its assigned parking at the shade hangars at the reliance aviation ramp. In the process, I inadvertently contacted a non structural pole of the hangar with the starboard fiberglass wingtip causing minor damage to it. After determining that this was a non-reportable incident, I notified reliance aviation and they filed a police report with the Miami dade county police dept. For insurance purposes. This morning, our FAA, IA licensed mechanic inspected the aircraft and estimated the damage to be around. $300.00. The aircraft is being repaired and all work will be entered into the aircraft's logbooks in accordance with FAA regulations.
