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.

On October 19, 2023, at approximately 1543 on pwa ramp/ non-movement area a C25B aircraft taxing for departure struck the nose radome of a parked C560 aircraft casing minor damage to both aircraft. The C25B had surface scratches to the underside of the left wingtip and fragmented the left wingtip navigation light. The C560 nose radome was damaged beyond economic repair, requiring replacement.
