## Narrative

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

(-23) THE AIRCRAFT IS A CONVENTIONAL WHEELED AIRPLANE. WHILE THE AIRCRAFT WAS BEING TAXIED, THE TOWER ASKED THE PILOT TO HOLD FOR ANOTHER AIRCRAFT. WHEN HE APPLIED THE BRAKES, THE AIRCRAFT TAIL ROTATED UPWARD AND THE PROPELLER CONTACTED THE TAXIWAY SURFACE. THE AIRCRAFT WAS ON A DOWNWIND TAXI AT THE TIME AND THE WINDS WERE GUSTY.

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.
