Narrative:

Flight arrived at gate at XX34 local. With the right engine in feather and left engine shut down and the exit stairs extended, the aircraft seemed to be hit from the rear which felt like to be lifted off the ground. I immediately shut the right engine down and went to complete the shutdown checklist and after inspection of the aft part of the aircraft, it was struck in the rear just forward of the baggage compartment with a baggage loader underneath it.
