## Narrative

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

AIRMAN TAXIING UNTO THE RAMP MISJUDGED THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE AIRCRAFT AND AIRPORT LIGHT POLE.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS TAXIED INTO THE POLE CAUSING MINOR DAMAGE TO THE LEADING EDGE.

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.
