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.
Student pilot was taxiing into the ramp area after a solo. He identified a fuel pump on the starboard side of the aircraft, fixated on it, and failed to identify a parked trailer on the port side, causing the leading edge of the left wing to make contact with the trailer. Minor damage was caused by the impact. No injuries reported.
