## Narrative

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

(-23) ON AUGUST 10, 2007, AIRCRAFT N2791E PILOTED BY ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^ LANDED ON RUNWAY 31R AT REID HILLVIEW AIRPORT (RHV). WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES TO EXIT ON TAXIWAY "C" PILOT STATES HE MISAPPLIED THE BRAKES CAUSING THE AIRCRAFT TO UNEXPECTEDLY EXIT THE RUNWAY SHORT OF TAXIWAY "C". THE RESULT WAS THE LEFT HAND HORIZONTAL STABILIZER MADE CONTACT WITH THE TAXI SIGN, KNOCKING IT OVER AND CAUSING MINOR PAINT AND FABRIC DAMAGE.

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.
