The aircraft was vectored for a right hand visual approach to runway 29. At around 5 miles NE of the airport at about 3,800 feet, the pilot reported the airport in sight, was cleared for the visual and changed to Moncton tower. The Airport Controller detected that the aircraft WAS NOT on final for runway 29 and, when queried, the pilot realized his error, corrected the alignment and landed safely. Recorded radar data indicated that the aircraft had continued on a course towards the VOR, located 6.2 miles E of Moncton and had then turned in towards the airport at 1.5 miles from the VOR. It appeared that the pilot had aligned the aircraft with the four lane highway leading from Shediac to Moncton, instead of runway 29. TSB evaluating.

The aircraft arrived from Moncton and was being marshalled into gate 72. Two marshallers (positioned near the aircraft's nose and starboard wing) were guiding the aircraft in. The starboard wing marshaller attempted to signal the nose marshaller to have the aircraft stopped but the nose marshaller did not see this signal. The aircraft's starboard wing tip contacted an air conditioning truck, incurring minor damage. Company maintenance will replace the wing tip. Nothing further in TSB Initial Notification (#A97O0159)
