PILOT WAS IN THE PATTERN, MAKING STOP AND GO LANDINGS, AND WAS TAXIING BACK FOR ANOTHER TAKEOFF.  HE WAS DISTRACTED AS HE TAXIIED BY THE FUEL PUMPS AND THE RIGHT WING OF HIS AIRCRAFT CAME IN CONTACT WITH THE TOP OF THE VERTICAL STABILIZER OF THE OTHER AIRCRAFT, WHICH WAS PARKED AT THE FUEL PUMPS. THERE WAS MINOR DAMAGE TO BOTH AIRCRAFT AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES.
