## Narrative

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

^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^(A-320) AND ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^(B-777) WERE NOSE TO NOSE AWAITING CLEARANCE ONTO RWY31L AT TAXIWAY BRAVO AND KE. WHEN ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^ WAS CLEARED ONTO THE RUNWAY, THEY POWERED UP TO MAKE THE 90 DEG TURN ONTO TAXIWAY KE AND ANOTHER 90 DEG TURN ONTO RWY 31L.  DUE TO THEIR CLOSE PROXIMITY, DEBRIS WAS THROWN ONTO ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^ WITH ENOUGH FORCE TO DAMAGE THEIR WINDSCREEN.  NEITHER CONSTRUCTION DEBRIS NOR TAXIWAY CONDITION WERE THE SOURCE OF THE DEBRIS.

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.
