From the FAA’s Accident/Incident Data System (AIDS), through its Aviation Safety Information Portal, as reported. The NTSB investigates accidents separately, and its record of an accident is the fuller one. The aircraft is matched to the registry 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.

What happened

The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.

Two ramp agents marshalled N470B to a parking spot on the pvd northeast ramp. As the aircraft conducted a counter-clockwise 270 degree turn the right wing struck the right wing of a secured Cessna 208 caravan parked on the ramp. There is no evidence the ramp agents were aware of the two aircrafts proximity to each other nor is there any indication a stop signal was given to the flight crew.
