Impossible! Nigel NEVER makes any mistakes, it's always those bl00dy yanks. Clearly, it was the building that hit the aeroplane!

Sometimes airports do allow buildings where they should not, e.g. that parking garage off the end of the runway at San Diego.

When that Air France clipped the Comair jet years ago, I asked my FO who he though was to blame.

"Air France!" he says. When I ask why he says "Well, they're French!".

Didn't the NTSB blame the Comair crew in that incident? Can't remember...

Or they'll blame Boeing for making the wing too long!
