Event Location
Probable Cause
The other pilot’s failure to see and avoid the stationary airplane during taxi.
Full Narrative
The pilot of the tailwheel-equipped airplane reported that during taxi, he turned right to position the airplane to perform pre-takeoff procedures, and the right wing passed over the running engine of a stationary airplane. The right wing struck the turning propeller of the stationary airplane.
The airplane sustained substantial damage to the right wing, and the stationary airplane sustained minor damage.
Both pilots reported no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with their airplane's that would have precluded normal operation.
