## Narrative

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

THE PIC REPORTED THAT HE AND A STUDENT PILOT WERE TAXING THE AIRCRAFT ACROSS THE FIELD TO THE DEPARTURE END OF RUNWAY 09. A SEMI TRUCK WAS PARKED TO CLOSE TO THE TAXIWAY. PASSING THE SEMI TRUCK THAT WAS PRUTRUDING INTO THE TAXIWAY, THE AIRCRAFT RIGHT WINGTIP HIT THE SEMI TRUCK.  NO INJURIES WAS REPORT.

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.
