Narrative:

On landing, I rolled by runway 33, while landing on runway 36. We were cleared to taxi on runway 33. The turn required to get back to 33 was about 150 degree. The only complete reversal I have made while taxiing medium large transport equipment was in the simulator. I wound up wide and may have come in contact with a runway light. IOE should mandate a turnaround of 180 degree on a runway.
