## Narrative

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

ON 29 AUGUST 2025, AT DALLAS LOVE FIELD, APPROXIMATELY 1045 CENTRAL TIME. A CESSNA CITATION MODEL 560 WAS MOVING FROM THE RAMP ONTO THE TAXIWAY. WHILE MOVING FORWARD, THE PILOT STRUCK A GROUND POWER UNIT. THE PILOT EXITED THE AIRCRAFT AND INSPECTED DAMAGE TO THE LEFT WINGTIP, THEN ELECTED TO CONTINUE THE FLIGHT. THE OPERATOR SUBSEQUENTLY CONTACTED ATC AND DECLARED AN EMERGENCY. UPON THE AIRCRAFT ARRIVAL, THE OPERATOR INSPECTED THE AIRCRAFT AND COORDINATED REPAIRS.

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.
