A potentially dangerous event occurred at the Seattle airport. During the taxiing, the Japan Airlines aircraft caught a second, waiting for de -de -core.
The American Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is investigating an incident that occurred at the airport in Seattle on Wednesday, February 5.
Around 10:17 Local time Boeing 737 American Delta Air Lines lines waited to remove ice from its outer part.

During the taxiing, the right wing of the Boeing 787 Japanese lines caught the tail of the Delta aircraft.
Seattle. The plane caught the second during taxi
The machine of American lines was to fly to Puerto Vallart in Mexico, and there were 142 passengers on board. The collision was not strong. Everyone left the deck, and later got into another plane, which took them to their destination.
Although the recording on the airport bus reacted with laughter at the sight of the wing of the second machine stuck in the tail, the passengers were less laughing.
“I sat on the left. Suddenly, the passenger from the right, on the back, started screaming, I did not understand what, I think he was a Japanese. I turned around and then the plane stopped abruptly. People looked out the windows and we realized that there was a collision with the second machine. I have been flying a lot in recent years and there have been different things, but it was something new for me. The collision of aircraft at the airport is not something that you can underestimate, “said the passenger present on board the Japan Airlines machine in an interview with ABC News.
Anxiety after air disasters in the USA
“Planes were in an area that is not subject to air traffic control,” said FAA. The airport announced that the incident had a “minimal influence” on its activities.
Traveling with Delta Air Lines said that at the time of the collision the machine jumped and shook slightly. Shortly afterwards, the captain announced that the aircraft tail was hit. The passenger added that everyone on board kept calm and finally got off the plane. Another passenger pointed out that everyone was shocked, taking into account the recent events. Last week, two air disasters occurred in the USA, including the most mortal in history for almost a quarter of a century.
