NTSB narrative
While commencing to taxi adjacent to an airport hangar, the right elevator of the multi-engine airplane struck the hangar. The pilot rated student was at the controls at the time of the accident. The CFI, who was seated in the right seat, reported that the flight was intended for the student to practice instrument approaches in a multi-engine airplane. The student held a private pilot certificate with ratings in single engine land and multi-engine land airplanes. The student's total accumulated flight time was 3,000 hours, of which 1,000 hours were in multi-engine airplanes.
Probable cause
the dual student pilot's failure to maintain clearance from the hangar while taxing.

- Unreviewed is an editorial label, not an investigation status. API-sourced is not report-checked or human-reviewed. Explicit event totals are used without summing aircraft injury tables; onboard allocation is withheld. Unknown values remain unknown. The operation category is mapped from the NTSB-reported FAR part and has not been reviewed.
- Filled from the NTSB case API where the bulk record had no value: investigation status. Values present in the bulk record are kept.
- The date is the local date, which is the same as the UTC date the NTSB stores.
