## Narrative

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

AIRMAN OF ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^ TAXIED THE AIRCRAFT AND DEPARTED THE RAMP WITH THE GROUND POWER UNIT (GPU) STILL ATTACHED THAT RESULTED IN MINOR DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT. THE GPU DISCONNECTED IN ABOUT 50 FEET.  THE MARSHALLERS TRIED TO STOP THE AIRCRAFT FROM TAXI WITH NO SUCCESS.

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.
