HIT ARPT SIGN BAR DURING TAXI.

Narrative

THE RWY AT NATRONA COUNTY INTL (CPR) ARPT HAS LIGHTED RWY SIGNS ON THE PAVEMENT OF THE RWY. THE RWY ALSO HAS A VERY ODD SHAPE TO IT. IT IS NOT A RECTANGLE. I TRIED TO DRAW A PICTURE OF WHAT I THINK IT LOOKS LIKE. THE RWY WAS 150 FT WIDE (ACCORDING TO PEOPLE AT FBO) AND THE RWY WAS NARROWED TO 60 FT WIDE TO SAVE MONEY ON MAINT COSTS. THE ASPHALT WAS NOT REMOVED TO MAKE THE RWY NARROWER. THIS WAS DONE TO SAVE MONEY. THE ARPT LIGHTED SIGN BARS WERE MOVED AND INSTALLED ON THE UNMAINTAINED AND SOME MAINTAINED ASPHALT OF THE RWY. REFER TO THE DIAGRAM. I LANDED ON RWY 21; SLOWED THE AIRPLANE DOWN TO TAXI SPD; TURNED OFF THE RWY; ACKNOWLEDGED THAT I SAW THE TWIN TAXIING TO RWY 21 AND THAT I WOULD LET HIM PASS AND TAXI TO FUEL. I WAS GOING TO START MY FIRST S-TURN (THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL BIPLANE TAIL DRAGGER) TO CLR THE WAY AHEAD OF ME. I HIT THE ARPT LIGHTED SIGN BAR ON THE ASPHALT BEFORE I MADE THE FIRST S-TURN. WHAT CAN BE DONE TO PREVENT RECURRENCE. NEVER PUT SIGNS ON THE PAVEMENT OF A RWY. NEVER PUT ANYTHING ON THE PAVEMENT OF A RWY; TXWY; ETC; THAT AN ACFT CAN RUN INTO. WHAT CAN BE DONE TO CORRECT THE SIT. REMOVE THE SIGNS OFF OF THE PAVEMENT. REMOVE THE UNUSED PAVEMENT IF YOU WANT A NARROWED RWY. I BOUGHT THE PLANS TO BUILD THIS AIRPLANE IN 1977. THE FIRST FLT WAS OCT/XX/94. MY DREAM WAS TO FLY TO OSHKOSH AND RETURN. THE AIRPLANE IS NOW RUINED AND IN PIECES BECAUSE SOMEBODY WANTED TO SAVE MONEY. PLEASE DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN TO ANYONE ELSE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP.
