## Narrative

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

DURING PRE TAKEOFF TAXI, AIRCRAFT CAME IN CONTACT WITH SNOW MARKER ON AIRPORT SERVICE ROAD.  PILOT REPORTED THAT RIGHT BRAKE STUCK DURING TAXI.  MAINTENANCE CREW UNABLE TO DUPLICATE PROBLEM.  RIGHT HAND PROPELLER DAMAGED IN EVENT.  OPERATOR OPTED TO REPLACE ENGINE AND PROPELLER.  NO FURTHER DAMAGE TO AIRCRAFT REPORTED.

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.
