Narrative:

The AWOS on the field was calling the WX no clouds below 12000 -- visibility 10 mi, temperature 64, dewpoint 62, so there was a considerable amount of moisture on the PA32. I wiped down the outside of the windshield with my bare hands before loading. While taxiing out to active runway (very slowly) because of reduced visibility (fogged windshield) I mistook a ramp taxi light (blue) for a taxiway (I had taxiway lights on my left side and on my right). I taxied into a parked (unlit) aircraft. The incident could have been avoided had I properly cleaned the windshield.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: AN ATX SMA RAN INTO A PARKED ACFT.

Narrative: THE AWOS ON THE FIELD WAS CALLING THE WX NO CLOUDS BELOW 12000 -- VISIBILITY 10 MI, TEMP 64, DEWPOINT 62, SO THERE WAS A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF MOISTURE ON THE PA32. I WIPED DOWN THE OUTSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD WITH MY BARE HANDS BEFORE LOADING. WHILE TAXIING OUT TO ACTIVE RWY (VERY SLOWLY) BECAUSE OF REDUCED VISIBILITY (FOGGED WINDSHIELD) I MISTOOK A RAMP TAXI LIGHT (BLUE) FOR A TXWY (I HAD TXWY LIGHTS ON MY L SIDE AND ON MY R). I TAXIED INTO A PARKED (UNLIT) ACFT. THE INCIDENT COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED HAD I PROPERLY CLEANED THE WINDSHIELD.
