What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
On August 17, 2019 N408ER a CE-172 was conducting touch and goes at night at Daytona Beach international airport. During this practice and after landing the airplane cleared the runway and the airman was clear to taxi back to runway 25L by the tower controller. The airman acknowledged the clearance but she felt she was rushed because there were two more airplane landing behind and the airman said she did not have sufficient time to finish the after landing checklist. The airman was clear via s to cross runway 16 to rwy 25L. When crossing the intersection of s and M3 the airman did not see N465ER which was turning left from taxiway e to join s to rwy 25L. N465ER struck N408ER with the propeller, creating damages on N408ER left wing.
