## Narrative

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

AFTER COMPLETING A FLIGHT TO CHA, WHILE TAXIING ON THE WEST RAMP AREA FOR PARKING, N13HM'S LEFT WINGTIP STRUCK THE BACK END OF THE JET A FUEL TRUCK.

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.
