## Narrative

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

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.

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.
