## Narrative

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

N377LD COMPLETED ILS CNO ILS26R WITH CIRCLE TO LAND RWY 3.  AIRCRAFT TAXIED CLEAR OF RWY 3 AT TWY A AND WAS PROCEEDING WESTBOUND TO TWY K WHEN PILOT WAS UNABLE TO KEEP TAIL FROM RISING DUE TO STRONG RIGHT AFT QUARTERING WIND (050 AT 14 KNOTS).  PROP STRIKE GRAZED TAXIWAY WITH ENGINE AND PROP CONTINUING TO TURN UNTIL PIC COMPLETED ENGINE SHUTDOWN.   AIRPORT OPERATIONS PERSONNEL HELPED PILOT SECURE AIRCRAFT AND TOW IT TO PARKING.

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.
