## Narrative

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

(-23) WHILE TAXIING CLEAR OF RUNWAY, PASSENGERS NOTED A "TICK" SOUND AND NOTIFIED PILOT. PILOT, UNAWARE OF ANYTHING UNUSUAL, TAXIED AIRCRAFT TO PARKING. POST-FLIGHT INSPECTION OF AIRCRAFT DID NOT REVEAL ANY DAMAGE. AIRCRAFT DEPARTED KSFO WITH UNEVENTFUL FLIGHT TO KRNO. AFTER ARRIVING IN KRNO, RELIEF PILOT INSPECTED AIRCRAFT WITH NO DISCREPANCIES OBSERVED. NO FURTHER FLIGHT OCCURRED WITH AIRCRAFT REMAINING IN KRNO FOR DURATION OF NIGHT. DURING ROUTINE INSPECTION THE FOLLOWING DAY, MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL FOUND PROPELLER DAMAGE ON AIRCRAFT.

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.
