Well of course they are going to "Bump" into eachother if they are both on the same runway....geez

Who da thunk it!

I think I'll avoid CAL if I have to go to EWR...

[Amish RakeFight]

Oh boy, ....here we go again....

 

[Dumb Pilot]

Is that guy release into the line that quick?:laugh:

 

[big pimpn']

Come on guys, it was just a "bump" LOL!

 

[Bart Simpson]

Was it the same CAL 757 that landed on the taxiway in EWR?

 

[big pimpn']

No, it was just the same crew.

Was it the same CAL 757 that landed on the taxiway in EWR?

cal 757 was under tow and stationary when the lufthansa 747 "brushed" wingtips.

 

[Turtlesfly]

Why they make the collision sound so artistic. . . just brushing each other.

In reality, those supertug guys . . . I always am scared how they manage to drive those things around with bad radios and poor terminology how they don't hit stuff more often.

 

[The Drizzle]

That sucks, those "brushings" can get expensive, like when air canada knicked a RAH 170 in LGA, didn't look like much but $$$$
