Narrative:
Location: approach at ege. During approach at 6 mi, tower cleared a light civil aircraft to land from a left downwind in front of our flight. We were advised by tower of its position but could not identify the aircraft. After repeated inquiries, tower called traffic at midfield rollout, we confirmed and prepared for a go around. As we continued we saw the small aircraft clear and were cleared to land. Just prior to landing clearance, we suffered a bird strike on the radome. Landing was accomplished well within air carrier guidelines. We were then surprised to notice the close clearance of our left wingtip to an aircraft in the mud at the midfield exit taxiway. I estimate approximately 30 ft clearance as we passed during landing rollout. I got tower phone number and advised them of this report.

Title: ACR FOLLOWS LGT ACFT TFC AT EGE ONLY TO FIND IT STUCK IN THE MUD BESIDE THE RWY WITH MINIMAL CLRNC ON ROLLOUT.
Narrative: LOCATION: APCH AT EGE. DURING APCH AT 6 MI, TWR CLRED A LIGHT CIVIL ACFT TO LAND FROM A L DOWNWIND IN FRONT OF OUR FLT. WE WERE ADVISED BY TWR OF ITS POS BUT COULD NOT IDENT THE ACFT. AFTER REPEATED INQUIRIES, TWR CALLED TFC AT MIDFIELD ROLLOUT, WE CONFIRMED AND PREPARED FOR A GAR. AS WE CONTINUED WE SAW THE SMALL ACFT CLR AND WERE CLRED TO LAND. JUST PRIOR TO LNDG CLRNC, WE SUFFERED A BIRD STRIKE ON THE RADOME. LNDG WAS ACCOMPLISHED WELL WITHIN ACR GUIDELINES. WE WERE THEN SURPRISED TO NOTICE THE CLOSE CLRNC OF OUR L WINGTIP TO AN ACFT IN THE MUD AT THE MIDFIELD EXIT TXWY. I ESTIMATE APPROX 30 FT CLRNC AS WE PASSED DURING LNDG ROLLOUT. I GOT TWR PHONE NUMBER AND ADVISED THEM OF THIS RPT.
