THE PILOT WAS TAXING TO THE RAMP FOLLOWING A LANDING. THE PILOT EXITED TAXIWAY A ON TO TAXIWAY A2. PILOT TAXIED SOUTHWEST ONTO THE RAMP. THE RIGHT WINGTIP OF THE AIRCRAFT STRUCK A TANKER TRUCK PARKED 30 YARDS FROM A2 INTERSECTION ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE RAMP. THE AIRCRAFT MADE AN IMMEDIATE HARD RIGHT TURN. THE SPINNER OF THE AIRCRAFT IMPACTED THE LEFT FRONT DOOR OF THE TANKER TRUCK AND STOPPED. THE PROPELLER STRUCK THE SIDE VIEW MIRROR OF THE TANKER TRUCK. THE PILOT PULLED THE MIXTURE TO IDLE/CUTOFF AND TURNED OFF THE MAGNETOS.

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.
