Analysis
The plt stated that the flt was uneventful until after landing when somebody instructed him, over the common traffic advisory frequency on his VHF radio, to park the acft at a new parking area, and he complied. This parking area was congested with extra acft flown in by visiting plts for the upcoming holiday weekend. As he began to turn his acft into a parking position, without the aid of ground personnel. The outboard section of the right wing struck the light pole, according to the plt. He further states that neither he or his passengers ever saw the light pole.
