As the flight instructor attempted to maneuver around the parked airplane and taxi out of the deice bay, the right wing impacted the top of the chain-link fence. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the right wing.
The pilots reported there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
