Delta Planes Clip Wings at O'Hare

[inflightboi175]

Two Delta planes "clipped wings" on the tarmac at O'Hare International Airport on Friday night, officials said.
The incident happened at about 7:30 p.m., said Karen Pride with Chicago's Department of Aviation.
"I was sitting in the exit row and they just bumped into each other," said a passenger, Michelle, who declined to give her last name. "It wasn't a big deal. Nothing was unsafe."
The planes were Delta flight No. 2207 to Minneapolis and flight No. 1777 to Atlanta said airlines spokeswoman Chris Kelly Singley.
Another aircraft was found to get the Minneapolis-bound passengers on their way. Other arrangements were being made to accomodate the travelers bound for Atlanta, said Kelly Singley.
The planes involved in the mishap were being inspected for damage by airline crews.
No injuries were reported.

surely there was an RJ nearby that caused this, maybe that SureJet outfit?

 

[Varmint]

it must have been RJ guys sitting in the "big" jet cockpits getting "mentored" by the great ones.

Sounds like it was during pushback. Sure, the pilots had A LOT to do with that....

So much resentment. Bitter lifers tossing any barb they can at mainline -- knowing full well that in the deepest reaches of their soul, they are consumed with envy and longing for "what could have been."

For our souls, please tell us how it is there....I long to downgrade to a crappier plane to come to "mainline".

How off-roads has SWA had?

 

[Varmint]

How off-roads has SWA had?

HUH? Do you mean how many off-roads has SWA had? I am guessing English might not be your first language. Here are the facts:

Delta.....9 accidents 1953, 1967, 1972, 1973, 1973, 1985, 1988, 1996

Southwest.....2 accidents 2000, 2005

Because Southwest started their operation in 1971, we can eliminate the DL crashes prior to that point leaving DL with 6.....WN with 2. On loss of life DL 282....WN 1.
