What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
After landing on a remote runway of Dfw airport, the small ga aircraft received a long and complex taxi route to the corporate ramp. The private pilot who had no prior experience operating into Dfw airport and was planning to connect to an airline flight, lost control of his aircraft during a fast taxi turn causing the aircraft to depart the taxiway surface area, hitting a taxiway sign, and coming to a rest on the grass. An on-site investigation discovered the airman did not have a current medical certificate in his possession, the aircraft did not have a valid registration certificate onboard, and the current address of the airman has not been updated with the FAA.
