Narrative:

I taxied out of the showplane camping area under the direction of a flagman to the parallel taxiway adjacent to runway 18/36. Upon turning northbound on the taxiway, I was directed by another flagman to move to the right side of the taxiway about halfway to the runway 18 departure point, I was advised that runway 18/36 was now closed and to continue taxiing ahead for a runway 27 departure. Then I came alongside another flag person, and she held up a sign asking if I was a departure. I acknowledged yes and she turned the sign over and it read keep right, and she motioned me to move further right. By that time I was approaching the intersection abeam the tower which is used for runway 18 departures. I continued up and over the 'hill' to the intersecting taxiway and my right wing passed over an small aircraft Y that had been staged perpendicular to the taxiway north of the intersection awaiting clearance onto the runway for the 'fly-by pattern.' his propeller hit my right aileron and lower wing skin causing slight damage. The propeller was broken on the small aircraft Y with no other obvious damage.
