## Narrative

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

(-23) ON FEBRUARY, 24, 2008, THE PILOT ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^ WAS TAXIING A PIPER PA-31T, REGISTRATION NUMBER N68BJ, SERIAL NUMBER 31T7920029 ON TAXIWAY #23 AT BOCA RATON AIRPORT, FLORIDA AND CAME IN CONTACT WITH A TAXI LIGHT WHILE MAKING A TURN AND CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE LEFT PROPELLER.

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.
