Narrative:

Crew discussed proximity of aircraft and buildings to the taxi lines. Aircraft completed initial right turn onto the taxiway without any difficulty. Aircraft proceeded down the taxiway with marhsallers on the left and right side, giving wingtip clearance. Aircraft was then given a right turn at the end of the ramp (again, on the taxi lines). A G2B was parked on the last spot. Aircraft completed the turn with no difficulty. In fact, the turn was planned to give excess clearance on the right wing to avoid any contact with the G2B. Aircraft was on the taxi line when winglet of cpr X apparently contacted the winglet of the G2B. Crew attention was focused on clearing fuel trucks and structures on the left side of the aircraft. Marshaller apparently gave a signal to stop the aircraft which was unseen by the flight crew. Cpr X did not experience any 'bump' or 'jolt' from the contact. Pilot in right seat of cpr X saw marshaller wave a hand as cpr X's winglet was passing the winglet of the G2B. Flight crew thought that clearance was not a problem and proceeded to taxi and takeoff normally. Right seat pilot contacted FBO after departure and was informed that a minor winglet contact with the G2B had occurred. At no time was cpr X told to return to the ramp by FBO, ground control, or tower. The maintenance/line supervisor at FBO informed the flight crew of cpr X that contact had occurred approximately 6-7 inches from the top of the G2B's winglet with no apparent dents in the metal but a small 'scrape.' maintenance/line supervisor at FBO verified that the G2B was within its ramp 'white box' for required ramp clearance. The flight crew of cpr X notified captain cpr Y immediately with details of incident. Damage is a minor scrape along the leading edge and top of the winglet.

Title: FLC OF A GULFSTREAM 24 STRUCK THE WINGLET ON THE WINGLET OF A PARKED GULFSTREAM 2B DURING TAXI FROM PARKING. ONLY MINOR SCRAPES TO BOTH ACFT RESULTED. FLC WERE UNAWARE THAT A COLLISION OCCURRED UNTIL BEING INFORMED BY THE FBO AFTER TKOF.

Narrative: CREW DISCUSSED PROX OF ACFT AND BUILDINGS TO THE TAXI LINES. ACFT COMPLETED INITIAL R TURN ONTO THE TXWY WITHOUT ANY DIFFICULTY. ACFT PROCEEDED DOWN THE TXWY WITH MARHSALLERS ON THE L AND R SIDE, GIVING WINGTIP CLRNC. ACFT WAS THEN GIVEN A R TURN AT THE END OF THE RAMP (AGAIN, ON THE TAXI LINES). A G2B WAS PARKED ON THE LAST SPOT. ACFT COMPLETED THE TURN WITH NO DIFFICULTY. IN FACT, THE TURN WAS PLANNED TO GIVE EXCESS CLRNC ON THE R WING TO AVOID ANY CONTACT WITH THE G2B. ACFT WAS ON THE TAXI LINE WHEN WINGLET OF CPR X APPARENTLY CONTACTED THE WINGLET OF THE G2B. CREW ATTN WAS FOCUSED ON CLRING FUEL TRUCKS AND STRUCTURES ON THE L SIDE OF THE ACFT. MARSHALLER APPARENTLY GAVE A SIGNAL TO STOP THE ACFT WHICH WAS UNSEEN BY THE FLC. CPR X DID NOT EXPERIENCE ANY 'BUMP' OR 'JOLT' FROM THE CONTACT. PLT IN R SEAT OF CPR X SAW MARSHALLER WAVE A HAND AS CPR X'S WINGLET WAS PASSING THE WINGLET OF THE G2B. FLC THOUGHT THAT CLRNC WAS NOT A PROB AND PROCEEDED TO TAXI AND TKOF NORMALLY. R SEAT PLT CONTACTED FBO AFTER DEP AND WAS INFORMED THAT A MINOR WINGLET CONTACT WITH THE G2B HAD OCCURRED. AT NO TIME WAS CPR X TOLD TO RETURN TO THE RAMP BY FBO, GND CTL, OR TWR. THE MAINT/LINE SUPVR AT FBO INFORMED THE FLC OF CPR X THAT CONTACT HAD OCCURRED APPROX 6-7 INCHES FROM THE TOP OF THE G2B'S WINGLET WITH NO APPARENT DENTS IN THE METAL BUT A SMALL 'SCRAPE.' MAINT/LINE SUPVR AT FBO VERIFIED THAT THE G2B WAS WITHIN ITS RAMP 'WHITE BOX' FOR REQUIRED RAMP CLRNC. THE FLC OF CPR X NOTIFIED CAPT CPR Y IMMEDIATELY WITH DETAILS OF INCIDENT. DAMAGE IS A MINOR SCRAPE ALONG THE LEADING EDGE AND TOP OF THE WINGLET.
